THE VINEA FOUNDATION
Having received,
let's give.
A grants program by Vinea Foundation, in partnership with the
Community Foundation for the CSRA — supporting nonprofits focused on
special needs, generational poverty, and underserved youth.
01 / OUR MISSION
Having Received,
Let's Give.
Since 2007, Allan Soto, Founder and CEO of Vinea Capital, has dedicated
his work to serving the special needs community. Through Soto ALG,
he’s supported adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and
with ABLE Kids, he’s provided ABA therapy for children on the Autism
spectrum. He later expanded his ventures to include Vinea Capital and
Pineapple Ink Tavern, each rooted in strong community support.
Guided by the belief that “where much is given, much is required,”
Soto partnered with the Community Foundation of the CSRA to create a
sustainable way to give back. The new grants program will award
$100,000 annually to nonprofits across the CSRA focused on individuals
with special needs, generational poverty, and underserved youth. Vinea
Capital looks forward to supporting and learning from the organizations
making a difference in our community.
"Where much is given, much is required."
Guided by that belief, Soto partnered with the Community Foundation for the CSRA to build a sustainable way to give back — the Vinea Foundation.
02 / THE GRANTS PROGRAM
Funds awarded annually to
nonprofits across the CSRA.
Two grant windows a year, administered through the Community
Foundation for the CSRA's online portal.
