Santa Visits Alviso Foundation

At CompassPoint Mentorship, we are honored to play a role in supporting the incredible work of the Santa Visits Alviso Foundation. This foundation is much more than its festive name suggests—it operates year-round, bringing meaningful programs to the Alviso community.

One of the foundation's key initiatives is its educational scholarship program. These scholarships provide essential support to students pursuing degrees in diverse fields such as Biomedical Engineering, Graphic Design, Computer Science, and Environmental Studies. Many of these young individuals are the first in their families to attend college, making the impact of this program even more profound.

What makes this initiative truly special is its accountability and support structure. Scholarship recipients not only receive funding but are also required to submit proof of enrollment, class schedules, receipts, and transcripts. This ensures the funds are directly contributing to their academic success. When challenges arise, the foundation steps in to provide tools and guidance to help students achieve their goals.

Beyond scholarships, the Santa Visits Alviso Foundation operates throughout the year, addressing community needs with an all-volunteer team. The commitment and generosity of donors and volunteers make these life-changing programs possible.

While our role is a small part of this larger effort, we are proud to contribute to the foundation’s mission of creating opportunities and spreading joy in Alviso. Together, we are helping empower the next generation and fostering a brighter future for the community.

As we reflect on our involvement, we are reminded that it’s the collective spirit of giving that makes initiatives like these thrive. Whether it's supporting educational dreams or spreading holiday cheer, being part of this journey is a gift in itself.
