#TACKLEPOSSIBLE

For over 30 years, the 49ers Foundation has leveraged football to educate and empower Bay Area youth through innovative community programs. Our STEAM education, nationally recognized youth football camps, and partnerships with leading nonprofits reflect our commitment to inspiring confidence and collaboration. This work is made possible by the generous support of our corporate partners, Red & Gold Society members, and dedicated donors.

Teacher of the Game

The 49ers Foundation is proud to recognize Bay Area educators for their commitments to the next generation.

Community Connections

The 49ers Foundation was proud to introduce Community Connections presented by PG&E, a signature gameday program celebrating the 49ers success on the field to make a big impact off the field. PG&E donated $700 for every 49ers touchdown, $500 for every 49ers sack, and $300 for every 49ers field goal to a designated beneficiary of the 49ers Foundation!

STEAM Students of the Game

Presented by PG&E

For each 49ers home game, we invited two Bay Area students who have a passion for STEAM education or want to pursue a career in a STEAM-related field to a 49ers home game and highlighted them on our social media channels.

Fans had the opportunity to purchase a personalized scoreboard welcome, happy birthday, anniversary, proposal or congratulations message at a 49ers home game and see their name in lights on the large scoreboard. The 49ers Foundation raised a program record of over $17,000 during the 2024 season.
