The Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee (VCFGC) consists of seven members including one individual representing members of the California Legislature, four individuals that reside or work in the Vernon area, one Business Representative and one current Council Member. Each member serves a four-year term and shall serve no more than two consecutive terms. The Committee meets bi-annually in May and November, on the third Wednesday at 10:00 a.m. in the Vernon Council Chamber. (Municipal Code Section 2.48)

As one of the key elements of the City's good governance reforms, the City Council created the VCFGC to provide grants to charitable and governmental entities for projects and programs that benefit those residing and working in Vernon. Given the exclusively industrial nature of Vernon, the City Council determined that the VCFGC was in the best interest of the City and its residents, businesses and workers.
