There’s still time to give the gift of support to one of the many Marin nonprofits that need assistance this year. Here are just a few ideas:

Buckelew will help even more people secure safe and stable housing through eight new sober living studio apartments. These centrally located studios offer easy access to food services, local resources and public transportation for work and treatment. This year-long program helps those on their path to recovery gain their footing and participate in the community, all while building up resources to secure long-term housing. Buckelew is working in partnership with St. Vincent de Paul Society of Marin County, who will provide residents access to warm meals in their San Rafael dining hall. A gift supports wraparound resources for North Bay residents as they receive the mental healthcare needed to thrive. For more information, visit buckelew.org/ ways-to-give/givenow.

Give the gift of Lifehouse merchandise this holiday season. Lifehouse’s store is full of T-shirt, hoodie and hat designs that help the organization build awareness. Visit shoplifehouse.fitapparel.biz.

Welcoming Home

Welcoming Home clients are in empty apartments, have signed the lease, are paying rent and waiting for their house to be turned into a place to call home. A gift will help Welcoming Home transform these empty spaces into warm and welcoming living spaces. For more information, visit flipcause.com/secure/ cause_pdetails/MjI1MDU0.

Slide Ranch

In 2024, 86% of schools attending Slide Ranch field trip programs received scholarships. The organization continues to need support so that all schools that want to come to Slide Ranch can do so. Donate here: slideranch.org/donate2.

 

At Center for Domestic Peace, the organization’s commitment to safety and support of violence victims never takes a holiday. It’s only through the generosity of the community that Center for Domestic Peace is able to continue offering a lifeline to families in need. A gift will help make it possible to bring peace and safety to those who need it most. Donate here: centerfordomesticpeace.org/donate-now.

North Bay Children’s Center

For a donation of $250, be part of North Bay Children’s Center’s Bright Futures Capital Project. An engraved brick makes a special present for a loved one, a touching remembrance or a tribute in recognition of someone special. The deadline to order a brick is Jan. 3, 2025. For more information, visit nbcc.net/donate/ bright-futures-capital-campaign.
