The Vanguard Landing Team is both humbled and invigorated by the EXPLOSION of support and donations during our 24-hour ONLINE FUNdraising event on Tuesday, April 23rd! This amazing event coordinated by the BEST Community Foundation from the Peninsula right across the bay from us helps greatly in raising much-needed funds for so many non-profits – this year over 1.8 million overall!!!
This year we not only participated for the 11th time but also hosted a YouTube Premier of our long-awaited Groundbreaking Ceremony that same day beginning at 11 am!

As of this writing, because of all our AMAZING F.R.E.S.H Teams and our Donors who joined us in giving, we have amassed a profit of over $133,000+ so far!
We are so appreciative of those who donated Match Donations to inspire others to join them! Our Match Donors were Tim & Katie Grencewicz, and John and Laura Mill.

Browse the list of all donors below and we are so appreciative of each and every one of them! This event kicked off our fundraising efforts that go hand in hand with the second half of our Capital Campaign! The next two years of the Capital Campaign will be for finishing up a few things we still need for Phase One and to begin to add amenities such as our future Sportsplex, etc.

The Give Local 757 FUNdraiser is such an adrenalin-boosting event and we could NOT be this successful without our fearless leader, our Board Chair, Whitney Dear Reyes, our 38 F.R.E.S.H. Team Leaders, and then all of the Donors, each doing your part!

A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who participated, donated, shared, commented, and cheered us on! It ALL Mattered!

Some of our FUN FACTS from this event:

  • We were awarded two major Grand Prizes – the one for The Most Unique (Individual) Donors for a large non-profit and the one for The Most Raised from the Peer-to-peer pages! (that means we received an extra $2000 in bonus prize money!)
  • We received donations from 42 out of 50 states plus ones from Norway and France.
  • In the ranking of this year in funds raised compared to our top two other years when we had 50k Match donors?
  • As you saw, we raised $133,000+ this year and that was HUGE, especially since this year, we did not have a $50,000 Match Donation!
  • In the 2 years we had the $50,000 match, we raised $151,150 (2023) and then $168,000 (2021).
  • The highest we’ve EVER raised without a large MATCH donation was $76,000 (2022) and $51,000 (2020).

Let’s continue this momentum at this most exciting time as we begin site work and construction on our Intentional Community – Vanguard Landing!
