Current Pooled Fund members include:

The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation, Boeing, The Getty Foundation, Angell Foundation, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Warner Bros. Entertainment, and Target. Previous funders included The James Irvine Foundation, the Thelma Pearl Howard Foundation, Creative Artist Agency, and the JPMorgan Chase Foundation.

The Dana Foundation, Los Angeles County Arts Commission, National Endowment for the Arts and the Herb Alpert Foundation each support specific Arts for All initiatives.

Funding policies of public and private funders support and align with vision and mission of this plan.

Arts for All is supported by the Pooled Fund, established in 2004 with a $500,000 gift from the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF) and fostered by the leadership of Sony Pictures Entertainment. The Pooled Fund, which supports technical assistance training and key components of districts’ plans, has gained momentum and attracted more partners. Close to $1.5 million has been committed, matched by $1.5 million from participating school districts.

Pooled Fund members have a strong commitment to Arts for All and have increased their support over the years. In some cases members have taken ownership of aspects of Arts for All. Warner Bros. Entertainment, for example, has created Burbank Arts Education Foundation, a permanent endowment fund to support arts education in the Burbank Unified School District.

In 2003, the Arts Commission changed its Organizational Grant Program guidelines to include a requirement for arts organizations applying for funding to demonstrate how their education program meets the Visual and Performing Arts Standards for California Public Schools and requires matching funds from school districts for school-based projects.
