The Frieda C. Fox Family Foundation honors Frieda C. Fox, an accomplished teacher, artist, and musician who was the first in her family to attend college in the 1920's. Throughout her life, she inspired a love of learning, self-expression, and compassion within her family and community. Through this foundation, four generations of her family hope to do the same.

Our mission is to maximize the potential of children and youth, with the greater family vision that all children may have the strong and effective learning environments they need to encourage their talent, creativity and excellence independent of their families' income or economic status.

The foundation partners with educational non-profit programs in the two geographic counties of Santa Clara and Los Angeles, California, providing financial and various types of non-financial support, including video and technology support to a small number of long term grant recipients. We also provide a website with free, reliable, and current information about online tools and nonprofit video for all non-profits and foundations, at www.virtualsitevisit.org.

Open RFP's (requests for proposals) may be found by clicking on the Current Request for Proposals page. Additional education funding initiatives will be announced throughout the year.

Organizations new to this foundation may wish to let us know of their programs, for consideration in future funding initiatives. Eligible organizations may submit a short letter of introduction, through our online system. The foundation does not accept full proposals outside the current calls for proposals, nor postal mail submissions of any kind.
