Weston Call Fund for Big Sur

The Weston Call Fund for Big Sur (WCFBS) makes annual grants to nonprofits benefitting Big Sur residents from Mal Paso Creek to the Monterey County line. The Fund has granted $83,455 since its founding in 2018.

This special interest fund of the CFMC was founded in memory of Weston Call. The WCFBS is guided by an advisory board of community leaders. “Support from our generous donors allows us to continue the work of Weston in supporting the Big Sur community in impactful and meaningful ways,” said Brian Call, Advisory Board Chair.

In 2022, the WCFBS granted $40,000 to 10 nonprofit organizations. The Big Sur Grange received a grant to support their community engagement program, which aims to bring crucial services such as CPR classes, mobile vets, eye and hearing testing, disaster training, yoga and other programs directly to local residents at low or no cost, as well as make the Grange Hall available to local groups. “Our goal is to offer educational, historical, cultural and artistic programs for the Big Sur community,” said Sharon Petrosino, Big Sur Grange Secretary.
