For SDWF Members Only: Join us for a conversation about multiyear funding and the impact it would have for our Community Partners and organization!

SDWF Site Visit Training (Members Only)
2023-04-04 12:00 - 13:00 | Zoom Meeting
SDWF members are needed to help with the next stage in our grants selection process – site visits!
Site visits provide an opportunity for members to get to know applicant organizations on a deeper level and will help us determine which organizations will appear on our final ballot. This year, site visits will take place from April 12-April 27 and may be virtual or in-person depending on comfort levels of applicant organizations. We anticipate the majority will be in-person.
All volunteers must attend this mandatory training where SDWF members Stephanie Sontag and Ginny Nelson will provide guidance on how to conduct effective site visits.
Site visit times will be pre-arranged with grant applicants, and members will be assigned to small teams to conduct site visits. Member assignments will be determined by the Site Visit Preference Form, so please be sure to submit your availability by 4/6!
**If you are unable to attend the live virtual training but would still like to participate in site visits, a recording will be offered. Please register and select the recorded training option**
Any SDWF member can participate in site visits. However, you must disclose all conflicts of interest to ensure that you are assigned to the appropriate site visits. SDWF staff will send the list of organizations to all registered prior to the training.

SDWF Book Discussion: Passage West
2023-04-13 16:00 - 17:00 | Online Event – Zoom
SDWF members and guests are invited to join us in reading Rishi Reddi’s “Passage West.”
We will hold the book discussion on Thursday, April 13, 4-5PM.
Passage West tells the story of Indian, Japanese, and Mexican farmworkers and sharecroppers in the Imperial Valley, whose lives are shaped by events of the 1900s and the even more momentous decade of the 1920s.
This unforgettable debut novel unflinchingly asks the enduring question: Who is welcome in America? Richly imagined and beautifully rendered, Passage West offers a moving portrait of one man’s search for home and belonging amid the tangled ideology of America.
Must register in advance to attend – Zoom details will be sent closer to the event date.
