| "Who We Are" The Royal Grand Ducal Council of Alameda County Incorporated Was founded in 1998. We are a 501c (3) non-profit organization operating in Alameda County, our tax ID number is 94-32982. Our purpose is to raise money to be disbursed several times a year for those Charities in the County who are not heavily subsidized by other grants. We are governed by a Board of Directors, who are elected or appointed and volunteer their time. The Board of Directors consist of nine members. Each year, we hold a Ducal Ball. At this time the Community selects a Royal Grand Duke and a Royal Grand Duchess, to reign for a year. They are responsible for promoting the organization and various fund raisers throughout their reign. Their titles are camp titles and are not used for personal gain of the individuals that hold them. They answer to the Board of Directors who have the final say in decision making for the organization. We have been able to work with other non-profit organizations within the community. So far we are proud to say we have been able to give grants totaling in excess of $60,000.00 to Alameda County Charities, who are in need. We are always looking for new people to join our organization, we meet monthly on the last Thursday of each month. At the Light House Community Center, located at A Street & 2nd Street.
