What The Rosendin Foundation does

The Rosendin Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit incorporated in 2020 and headquartered in San Jose, California, operating as the centralized philanthropic arm of Rosendin Holdings, Inc. and its affiliate Modular Power Solutions (MPS). The Foundation awards annual grants of up to $100,000 to qualifying 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations working in three defined focus areas — emotional, nutritional, and occupational health — alongside emergency grants of up to $5,000 for unforeseen crises such as fire, flooding, or pandemic-related disruptions. Since inception, it has distributed more than $6.7 million to nearly 500 nonprofits across 14 states plus the District of Columbia, with the geographic service area legally constrained to within 100 miles of Rosendin and MPS office and project locations. Beyond grantmaking, the Foundation operates TRF Camp Build, a free day camp for current 6th-8th graders providing hands-on exposure to construction trades including electrical work, soldering, BIM, heavy equipment operation, and roofing.

The Foundation's revenue mechanics rest on three primary streams: employee payroll deductions from Rosendin and MPS staff (matched 100% by Rosendin Holdings up to an annual $500,000 cap), corporate sponsorships across seven tiers (Champion, Diamond, Emerald, Ruby, Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze), and annual charity golf tournament fundraisers that generated $334,458.91 in 2025, up from $260,845 in 2022. Donations are accepted via PayPal, mail-in checks, and the online grant portal at grants.therosendinfoundation.org. The Foundation maintains a lean paid staff of four plus an executive director, drawing on the parent company's 10,000+ employees for volunteer capacity through structured service days.

The Foundation holds the Candid (formerly GuideStar) Platinum Seal of Transparency (2023 and 2026) and the 2025 Bridge Builder Award from Recovery Cafe San Jose, and is led by Executive Director Chandra Stewart (appointed 2025, previously Director of Communications and Donor Relations at HonorHealth Foundation) under Board Chair Hank Brasch, who simultaneously serves as Chief Administrative Officer of Rosendin Holdings. There are no technology products, AI/ML components, or proprietary platforms associated with the organization; the underlying technology stack is a standard WordPress-based website with online grant and donation portals.
