The Alcario and Carmen Castellano/Silicon Valley Community Foundation Endowment Fund will focus on Latino nonprofits in the Bay Area.
When the Castellano Family Foundation announced last month it was shutting down its operations in June, people wondered if anything would take its place to provide funding for nonprofits serving the Latino community.
This legacy will continue supporting the LatinX community in perpetuity,” Silicon Valley Community Foundation Executive Vice President Gina Dalmas said. “This fund, in effect, transfers the stewardship of the work of the Castellano Family Foundation to the community itself to continue the Castellanos’ proud tradition of investing in LatinX leaders in our LatinX community.”
“This was a long-term vision, to look at the largest community foundation in the world right in our backyard,” said Castellano-Garcia, who will advise the endowment fund along with her brother, Armando Castellano. “That seemed like the best possible partner we could find if we want to wield influence and attempt to correct the inequity.”
The Dwight Clark Legacy Series has its roots in “Letters to 87,” a book by Maiocco containing letters fans wrote about what “The Catch” meant to them at Clark’s request after he was diagnosed with ALS. Clark died in 2018 before the book’s publication, but in December 2019, Maiocco sat down with some of Clark’s former teammates to talk about his legacy in a sold-out event at the Lesher Center
