Adopt-A-School
Program
Healthy children have a lower rate of absenteeism
and perform better in the classroom. One giving
option is to sponsor an entire school of qualified
Healthy Kids. The number of Healthy Kids and
amount needed to sponsor each school varies
with school size and potential enrollment. There
are over 300 schools in Santa Clara County,
each with children whose families qualify for
Healthy Kids. Click here for school examples.
Corporate
Financial Support
The Santa Clara Family Health Foundation, which
raises all Healthy Kids premiums, is a 501(c)(3)
tax-exempt entity. All contributions are tax deductible.
Out staff will provide a letter of recognition
with our tax ID number upon receipt of funds.
Please contact Kathleen King, executive director,
at (408) 874-1998 for more information.
Employer
Matching
Many employers will match funds contributed to
charity, so that every dollar you give counts
as two. Your company may already be a sponsor
of Healthy Kids. If you or your company is interested
in a corporate match program, please contact the Foundation's executive director, Kathleen King, at 408-874-1998.
Gift
Tributes
Gift tributes are a rewarding way to celebrate
friend, family, and associate birthdays, retirements,
and other special events. Tell us who you’re
honoring, and we’ll send the person an acknowledgement
of your gift tribute.
The
Hardship Fund
Although each child’s share of the monthly
Healthy Kids premium is low, families occasionally
experience exceptional need and ask for assistance
in making the monthly premium payment. Healthy
Kids donors may choose to contribute specifically
to this hardship fund.
Monthly
Premium Assistance
To provide Healthy Kids coverage, Santa Clara Family Health Foundation pays premiums of $75.67 per child per month, or $908.04 per child per year. Donors can help by sponsoring any part of this premium cost.
- Contribute $75.67 each month for a year.
- Sponsor a child for one month with a donation of $75.67.
- Sponsor a child for a year with a donation of $908.04.
- Donate what you can on a monthy or one-time basis to offset part of the premium cost.
