Welcome to the first episode of a very special season!

This year, RCF Connects proudly celebrates 25 years of serving, connecting, and uplifting communities across Contra Costa County.


To kick off the season, we’re taking a heartfelt journey through our history with some of the people who helped shape it. Joining us are Jim Becker, our current CEO and longtime visionary leader; Betty Geishirt Cantrell, beloved retired staff member and champion for community voices; and Vern Whitmore, a former Board Member who helped guide our mission in its early years. Together, they’ll share behind-the-scenes stories, memorable milestones, and the powerful moments that helped RCF grow from a small community foundation into a regional force for equity and opportunity.


We’re thrilled to welcome back our incredible host, Suzette Chaumette, who brings her signature warmth, insight, and passion to this special conversation.


Tune in as we honor the past, celebrate the present, and look ahead to the next 25 years of building a better, more connected future — together.

Listen now and celebrate with us!
