Sunstone community fund

The Sunstone Community Fund (SCF) supports a network of universities, nonprofit organizations, and public-private partnerships that develop and implement university-based entrepreneurship programs, early-stage tech accelerators, and advance local economic development through inclusive entrepreneurship and innovation.

The SCF is a Donor-Advised-Fund managed by the National Philanthropic Trust. It is an important component of Sunstone Management’s vision to advance public-benefit programs that support the development of inclusive and vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystems.

The SCF is committed to catalyzing partnerships that create economic opportunities for startup founders and communities throughout the United States. 

The SCF stands as a pivotal element within Sunstone Management's overarching vision to propel programs aimed at nurturing inclusive and dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystems. In a landscape where few charitable organizations prioritize early-stage Founders, who are pivotal drivers of economic growth, SCF fulfills this vital need. 

All donations also are tax-deductible, and as such are financially advantageous to donors. Donors receive regular updates through the Sunstone Community Fund Newsletter, and invitations to exclusive events.

If you care about innovation, job creation, economic opportunities for under-served individuals, improving communities or any combination of those, SCF is right for you.
