    Santa Clara Parade of Champions - a leading community building nonprofit organization

    The Santa Clara Parade of Champions has been a leading community building nonprofit organization that brings visibility and fundraises for charities and programs that serve those that need it most since 1945. Community building through partnerships, networking, and opportunities of engagement that support our mission values of Charity, Education, Service and Volunteerism—its together that we all can do the greatest good collectively.

  • Outdoor booth set up by Santa Clara City Library with a table covered in pamphlets and a laptop, two people standing behind the table smiling, a colorful superhero-themed mural on what appears to be a bookmobile or bus, and a bright sunny day.

    Bringing visibility to our Community

    The Parade brings visibility to our Community Village participants as well. In fact, many of our sponsors also have their teams tabling in the village during the Parade festivities. It's a one-day public event that runs from 9am to 3pm. Santa Clarans can stroll the village, the kid zone, have a coffee, a small bite, and a conversation with our community network of non-profits, educational resources, and diverse cultural groups to learn about programs, services and opportunities in the community.

  • A smiling woman with red hair and tattoos stands behind a wooden honey stand at an outdoor market. The stand has bottles of honey and a sign that reads 'Local Raw Honey'. There are boxes with labels from local places in the background.

    Who can participate?

    A variety of Cultural, Artisanal, Vendors, NPOs and commercial organizations with a “community focus”.
