Thank you for your interest in partnering with the Cook Foundation.
The Cook Foundation serves the needs of the El Dorado Hills and the greater Sacramento community by connecting individuals and businesses with important social causes. Through private donations and event sponsorships, the Cook Foundation responds directly to those causes with the goal of helping to create a thriving and prosperous community for all. Each year, we select a nonprofit organization to be the primary beneficiary of our annual fundraising efforts. We are now accepting applications for our 2026 fundraising recipient.
We invite 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations to apply if their mission aligns with our core values of empowering youth, promoting education, and building career pathways, particularly in the construction, engineering, and skilled trades sectors.
Please complete the following application so we can better understand your organization's mission, needs, and impact by September 30, 2025. The selected organization will be announced in January 2026.
