The fund provides grants to local non-profit agencies to provide toys, books, gifts and special experiences for the holidays. "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus" means that no child is meant to go without. The Yes, Virginia Fund offers these gifts in an effort to help all children feel valued and supported in their lives. We are committed to our credo: Some things have to be believed to be seen.”

Since its inception, the Yes, Virginia Endowment Fund has invested over $200,000 in the lives of children in our community

The Yes, Virginia Endowment Fund is a Fund of the Pasadena Community Foundation and receives all of its funds through the generousity of community members.
