The Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation
When you use a meter at Peninsula Town Center, you aren’t just paying to park. You’re helping fund the work of the Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation.
That includes efforts like our Change for Charity Meter Program and Peninsula Town Center Community Outreach Programs.
Every aspect of the Foundation is a joint partnership with our community and Peninsula Town Center visitors, like you.
So each time you feed a meter or make a ticket payment, you’re helping to benefit youth and family-focused organizations on the Peninsula.
And we thank you.
Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation Scholarships
You study. We pay.
Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation Scholarships are awarded annually in the spring to two graduating students at chosen local high schools. Each of the four students selected annually receives a $2,500 renewable two-year scholarship. Recipients are selected using criteria based on need, educational focus, character and academic potential. Applications are administered through each school’s guidance counselors and the Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation. Students interested in applying for the renewable scholarship can begin the process after the New Year. Each candidate must complete an application that includes a personal essay, transcript, student aid report and two recommendations. Students should contact their school guidance counselors in order to begin the process.
Change for Charity Meter Program
Your parking meter change funds local charities.
Six organizations are designated each year to receive proceeds from the parking meters at Peninsula Town Center. The revenue collected from the meters and each ticket paid helps fund the local charity chosen for that period.
The donations from Change for Charity represent 100% of ticket proceeds and a percentage of meter revenues therefore based on total parking meter receipts at Peninsula Town Center. The more guests park at Peninsula Town Center throughout the year, the more charities will earn - so spread the word! When guests feed the meters and pay their tickets, the proceeds provide meaningful support to Peninsula youth and their families.
All organizations are evaluated primarily of their efforts to support youth and families on the Peninsula.
The Change for Charity Meter Program is one of the most recognizable components of the Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation due to the direct relationship that exists between your parking meter and ticket payments and local charities.
“When you use a parking meter at Peninsula Town Center, you are not simply putting coins in a meter. Together with your friends and neighbors, you are providing meaningful support for Peninsula youth and families,” said Yaromir Steiner, CEO of Steiner Associates, a co-developer of Peninsula Town Center. “Each year, the Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation will donate significant funding through its programs and it is important that Peninsula residents know that this great effort would be impossible without their involvement.”
In addition to direct support from the Peninsula Town Center Community Foundation, Change for Charity recipients receive the benefit of signage exposure around Peninsula Town Center.
