ENHANCING THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN OUR COMMUNITY

Our Mission: The Santa Ynez Valley Foundation partners with the community to enhance the quality of life in the Santa Ynez Valley and Los Alamos.

Founded in 1991 by Stuart C. Gildred, The Santa Ynez Valley Foundation, a community foundation, has continuously grown through the years to become an integral part of The Santa Ynez Valley and Los Alamos. Funds from the foundation’s endowment, and support from donations, provide funding for grants and scholarships.
