The Foundation




History & Purpose

The Foundation of SMCC was incorporated in December 1958, to carry out the religious and charitable purposes of the San Marino Community Church. Through the Foundation, members and friends of the church are provided the opportunity to practice their stewardship by supporting specific offerings, endowing special gifts, and making bequests. The Foundation acts as the manager of the funds and the income from investments are used to support special programs, facility maintenance, and benevolence purposes of the church.
