Give Good History
Habitat for Humanity East Bay/Silicon Valley
In 2015, we partnered with Habitat for Humanity East Bay/Silicon Valley. We thank all the blood donors who participated and share some appreciation from Janice Jensen, President & CEO, Habitat for Humanity East Bay/Silicon Valley, who said:
“Habitat for Humanity East Bay/Silicon Valley is incredibly grateful for the partnership of Stanford Blood Center and the Give Good campaign. The financial support and awareness from this campaign will bring strength, stability, and self-reliance to more families in need of affordable homes. Thank you to those who took time out of their busy schedules to make a tangible impact by donating lifesaving blood and building a stronger community.”

BayKids Studios
In 2014, we partnered with BayKids Studios, whose mission is to help children facing long-term hospitalization heal through the power of filmmaking. Devora Kanter Kothari, executive director at BayKids Studios, said, “On behalf of all our filmmakers and their families, thank you! The BayKids Board of Trustees, Dave Spencer, our founder, and the BayKids Studios staff greatly appreciate your generous donation.
“Your belief in the healing power of filmmaking is inspiring. Our organization may not be able to supply the cure for our young filmmakers’ health challenges, but we can supply the cameras and the movie-making expertise to transform hospitals into movie studios and patients into directors, storytellers and actors.”
During Give Good, many donors were inspired to share their stories of why they donate. You can read their stories at SBCStories.org.

Humane Society Silicon Valley
2013 was the year we launched the campaign designed to double your impact. Our first partner was Humane Society Silicon Valley (HSSV). For each donor that came in during the campaign, we donated funds towards life saving medical care and vaccines for shelter cats and dogs.
Stephanie Ladeira, HSSV’s Vice President, Development, said, “The enthusiasm we’ve seen from clients, staff and volunteers eager to participate in the Give Good campaign has been terrific. Our programs touch human and animal lives, so this collaboration speaks to our mission to save and enhance lives. We’re looking forward to seeing the good that will come from this effort, to those who rely on both organizations.”
