    The San Diego Futures Foundation (SDFF) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit established to bridge the digital divide in San Diego. SDFF provides equipment, software, training, services, and technical support to San Diego nonprofits, small businesses, and disadvantaged residents. SDFF is working to improve lives in San Diego by increasing access to technology for low-income households, people with disabilities, and seniors.

    What is the Digital Divide?

    A term used to describe the discrepancy between people who have access to and the resources to use new information and communication tools, such as the Internet, and people who do not have the resources and access to the technology.

    The term also describes the discrepancy between those who have the skills, knowledge and abilities to use the technologies and those who do not. The digital divide can exist between those living in rural areas and those living in urban areas, between the educated and uneducated, between economic classes, and on a global scale between more and less industrially developed nations.

    Borrego Community Health Foundation (BCHF) is a private, non-profit 501(c)(3) Federally Qualified Health Center operating in San Diego and Riverside counties. BCHF tailors primary and preventive health programs to meet the health needs of men, women, children, adolescents and senior citizens in our surrounding communities, and those at risk of developing serious diseases such as diabetes. Without these and similar programs, many of the residents in this isolated desert region would have difficulty obtaining professional medical care.

    To reach those populations, BCHF acquired fully operational clinics in Cathedral City, El Cajon, Julian, Coachella Valley, Escondido, Desert Hot Springs and Thermal. In addition, the foundation opened a full-time pharmacy in central Borrego that dispenses medications to outlying clinics through daily messenger service.

    Borrego Community Health Foundation offers a wide array of health services that are unique in small, isolated communities such as Borrego Springs. BCHF offers patients at satellite clinics direct access to visiting specialists in such fields as dermatology, mental health, pediatrics, podiatry, prenatal care, reproductive health and women’s health. The latest health service added is pediatric dentristry, provided through our new partnership with The Smile Factory.

    Programs are available for pediatrics, adults and geriatrics. The caring staff are highly trained and skilled in all aspects of patient care.

    The Winebow Group comprises national importer and distribution houses that offer comprehensive portfolios of fine wine and spirits from around the world. The company represents some of the most established, family-owned properties in prominent growing areas, as well as a new generation of winemakers and distillers who are dedicated to innovation and quality.

    Led by President and CEO David Townsend, The Winebow Group was created in 2014 with the merger of two prominent industry forces, The Vintner Group and Winebow. Both companies were founded in 1980, grew significantly in recent years, and shared a common culture based on passion, knowledge and outstanding customer service. By bringing together the best resources and the best practices of each company, The Winebow Group’s financial strength, operational expertise, extended reach, and focus on education provide a unique platform and an unprecedented level of service in the fine wine and spirits sector.

    The concept behind The Winebow Group name reflects the coming together of The Vintner Group and Winebow to create a new, unified identity. While the name maintains the legacy of Winebow, it also communicates the concept behind The Vintner Group of bringing together a variety of entities to form a larger group that shares core values and practices.

    The Winebow Group offers comprehensive import portfolios nationwide with Winebow Imports and Craft + Estate, and comprises the following distribution houses: Winebow Boston, The Country Vintner, Martin Scott Wines, Purple Feet Wines, Quality Wine and Spirits, Stacole Fine Wines, Vintage Wines and Winebow Distribution. The combined distribution network reaches nearly half of the wine consumption in the United States and includes the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia Washington D.C. and Wisconsin.
