The Building Brighter Futures Society

Creating Lasting Impact Through Sustained Giving

At Oakland Family Services, our mission is simple but powerful: to provide individuals and families the opportunity to build brighter futures. Every program we offer — from foster care to early childhood education to mental health services — is designed to strengthen lives, restore hope, and create long-term positive change in our community.

None of this is possible without the support of donors who believe in our mission and invest in it for the long haul.

What Is the Building Brighter Futures Society?

The Building Brighter Futures Society is a distinguished group of donors committed to sustaining and expanding the life-changing work of Oakland Family Services. By making a multi-year pledge, Society members provide the stable and reliable funding that allows us to plan ahead, grow our impact, and respond to urgent needs in real time.

These contributions help ensure that children, families, and individuals in crisis continue to receive the support they need — not just today, but for years to come.
