“When things change, whether it’s because of technology or a pandemic, people with the least are usually the first ones hit—and hit the hardest.”
At Tipping Point’s 20-year Benefit, CEO Sam Cobbs addressed over 1,000 supporters and partners, calling for bold action to support our neighbors in need.
“Our goal is to make a measurable difference—to use our experience to work with intention and urgency to defeat poverty.”
That night, our community came together to raise a record-breaking $20 million to fund our grantmaking for the next year.
Tipping Point finds, funds, and strengthens the most promising poverty-fighting solutions so one day everyone in the Bay Area can prosper. Since 2005, we have invested over $440 million in community interventions, policy change, and new ideas.
In 2024 alone, our grantees provided life-changing services in housing, early childhood, education, and employment to over 91,000 of our neighbors across the Bay Area.
