We would like to invite you to sponsor one of the most prestigious events in Morgan Hill: Morgan Hill Community Foundation’s Philanthropy Awards Night. Our 18th annual event is scheduled for Friday, November 15, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. at the Community and Cultural Center in downtown Morgan Hill.

Below you will find information pertaining to the sponsorship opportunities.

Each year approximately 20 non-profit organizations recognize individuals or groups who are committed to accomplishing the mission of their organization. This is done through a brief light-hearted video presentation at which point the honoree receives a recognition award. The Morgan Hill Foundation’s Philanthropy Night is designed to recognize the good work of local volunteers and supporters who embody the “Give Where You Live” spirit.

The donations and sponsorships from individuals and companies like yours, allow the Morgan Hill Community Foundation to continue its effort of focusing our resources to help the greater Morgan Hill area and those nonprofits serving this community. This year MHCF will provide $32,000 in grants to local non profit organizations with projects and programs supporting the local Morgan Hill area.

The Morgan Hill Community Foundation’s Board of Directors thanks you in advance for your generous support of this year’s Philanthropy Night. Your gift, to the extent allowed by law, is tax deductible. To become a sponsor of this year’s event or for more information, please contact one of the Philanthropy Night Committee members listed below.
