2026 Grant Announcement

This year, SAM’s philanthropic focus is wildfire recovery, and we are seeking to engage organizations that are supporting individuals impacted by the fires through mental health services, direct financial assistance, housing support, access to basic needs, and/or social enterprise initiatives.

We are thrilled to announce the distribution of $340,000 in grants to five extraordinary organizations A Sense of Home, Boys & Girls Club of Malibu, Eaton Fire Collaborative, The Molly Steinsapir Foundation, and Pacific Community Ventures (PCV).

Last Tuesday’s meeting featured deeply inspiring presentations from each organization and served as a powerful reminder that when we come together with purpose, we create real and lasting change.

Thank you to every SAM member for your generosity, engagement, and commitment to making a difference. Together, we are transforming lives and strengthening communities.
