The Oakland Fund for Children and Youth (OFCY) is dedicated to providing opportunities and resources for Oakland's children and youth to become healthy, productive, ethical, and successful community members. They achieve this through funding organizations, creating policy, building capacity, and ensuring accountability. OFCY works collaboratively through partnerships with children, youth, families, community organizations, public agencies, schools, and other funders. They prioritize social and economic equity, child and youth development, and community collaboration. Established in 1996, OFCY is funded through Measure D, which sets aside 3% of the City's unrestricted General Fund and requires a three-year strategic plan to guide the allocation of funds.
