The Sacramento Rainbow Chamber Foundation is our non-profit giving arm of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber and Foundation were developed to create an open and safe place for LGBTQ+ and allied business owners to connect and network. The Chamber and Foundation’s founding principles focus on supporting diversity, inclusion and equality for all people. Whether you are a business owner or not, LGBTQ+ or an ally, our Chamber and Foundation welcome you!

Palmer Family HealthCare Education Scholarship
The Rainbow Chamber Foundation’s Palmer Family HealthCare Education Scholarship was established in memory of Mary & Frank Palmer.
Aiding LGBTQ+ and allied healthcare students is Frank and Mary’s way of showing appreciation for the selfless and compassionate care they received from nursing staff during their final years.
Because of your generosity, the scholarship has been able to give numerous individuals funding towards their degree in a healthcare field or certified educational program of their choice.
But as we all know, the cost of higher education continues to rise making it harder for students to achieve their academic goals. That’s where we come in!
Making a donation of any size to the Palmer Family Healthcare Education Scholarship Fund is a great way to help medical students achieve their goals and potential. Your donation qualifies for the maximum charitable benefit under state and federal law.
Thank you for your generosity and dedication to assisting with the success of our LGBTQ+ and allied scholars.
