Mission Statement:
Episcopal Charities supports new and existing nonprofit agencies in their effort to make a crucial difference in the lives of poor, oppressed and endangered individuals in need in the San Francisco Bay Area, regardless of their religious affiliation or practice.
Philosophy/Belief Statement:
We operate Action Networks that focus on healthcare, education, and environment, drawing people who are interested in working together to address the root causes of poverty. Action Network members give hands-on support to projects that they identify, and we award grants to the qualified agencies and initiatives that run those programs.
Program History:
In a sense, Episcopal Charities is as old as the Episcopal Church in California (over 150 years) because outreach to the poor, the oppressed and the endangered has always been a principal concern of the Episcopal community. Around 1977 Episcopal Charities was identified as a separate division within the Episcopal diocese. In 1999, Episcopal Charities was established as a separate legal entity, a California non-profit corporation qualifying as a 501(c)3 charitable organization under Internal Revenue Service regulations.
