ECSV is a collaborative project among 16 public institutions and private groups who provided financial support, including FIRST 5 Santa Clara County, the Franklin-McKinley School District, East Side Union School District, the Santa Clara County Office of Education, the Health Trust, the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, and the David and Lucile Packard Foundation. Despite the generous support of private foundations, the project faced a funding gap, so in the summer of 2014, US Bank and Opportunity Fund turned to the NMTC to provide financing for construction of the new $14.8 million, 28,000 sq. ft. facility. This is the seventh Educare facility financed by the New Markets Tax Credit program nationwide, which has financed more than a thousand community facilities in low-income areas across the country, and the fifth Educare site that US Bank subsidiary US Bancorp Community Development Corporation has financed.
