2025 Annual Report

SCR Foundation

Tax ID#91-1840255

Summary

The SCR Foundation (SCRF) advances its mission by raising funds and investing in community programs, events, and enhancements.  Through resident engagement, we work to reduce social isolation, support resident safety, and improve emotional and physical well-being, helping residents stay connected and supported throughout life changes.  We do this by investing in events, programs and community enhancements that are meaningful and measurable. Our board focuses on increasing connection among Residents to reduce social isolation, promoting community safety, and strengthening emotional and physical well-being through programs and services that remain effective as Residents’ needs evolve.

Our fiscal year ends December 31, 2025 and the Foundation remains financially strong and our programs and services will continue into 2026.  With our fundraising efforts we look forward to continuing collaboration with SCRCA, as well as continuing to offer our current services and programs.
