The majority of the foundation's not-for-profit activities are conducted in California. Grants are not given directly to individuals or to provide operational funds for large charitable organizations. Rather, the heart of the foundation's exempt purpose lies in its financial support for not-for-profit organizations that align with the foundation's mission (as stated above).

Wording as filed; text the foundation typed in capitals is shown in normal case. Deadlines on a tax return describe the foundation's usual process; they are not confirmation of a current open cycle.
