CHARITIES & DONATIONS



Rose’s Café is very supportive of giving to those in our community who are less fortunate. Our donation policy is described below. Should you have any questions please contact us. Thanks!

Donation Guidelines

Donations will be considered for non-profit organizations that meet the following criteria:
1. Local Schools attended by our patrons’ families.
2. Organizations that are San Francisco based, or national-based, that provide services to help those less advantaged and that help to build a stronger, sustainable community.
Within this context we will limit contributions to a given organization to 1 gift per year. Since Rose’s is part of a family of restaurants (Terzo & Rose Pistola) we may consider a gift from a sister restaurant to fill the limit of giving for that organization for the year.
We will consider donating to non-profit organizations that:

• Are action-oriented
• Are strategically focused
• Focus on children and their families
• Accomplish specific goals and objectives (but that are non-political or non-religious)
• Do work in our local community
• For local contributions we will give gift certificates of $50 or $100
• For large contributions we will donate food, personal time and money specific to the cause.

How to Apply:
If your work fits within our guidelines, we prefer to receive proposals in the fall in order to incorporate the giving into our budget cycle (our budgets are established in December for the subsequent year). Please be sure to have submitted your requests before our busy holiday season. While we would prefer to have all requests prior to the start of the subsequent year, we will consider on a case-by-case basis requests after December.

When writing your proposal please remember to be concise, straightforward and to the point. We want to know who you are, what your goals are, and how you plan to achieve them with our help. Please note in the proposal if your organization has received a donation from Rose’s Café before, if so how much & when was the donation given. Please send your written request or proposal to:

Rose’s Café
Attn: Matt Smey – Re Donations
2298 Union St.
San Francisco, CA 94123

After receiving your proposal, we will notify you of our decision. Please be aware that our donation ability is a function of our year-end budgeting and the strength of our business. We may not be able to give the same year to year.
Thanks for your interest.
