Our Impact

Our team is firmly committed to the betterment of our world and service to the community. We volunteer extensively, support organizations with pro-bono real estate advice and provide financial support to a number of non-profit groups working to improve life. Here are details on a few of the groups to which we are most committed. Please join us in supporting their work.

CALM was founded in 1970 as a resource to help stressed parents before they hurt their children. After nearly five decades, CALM remains the only nonprofit agency in Santa Barbara County solely focused on preventing childhood trauma, healing children and families, and building resilient communities throughout our County. 

CALM therapists guide children and caregivers through research-based prevention and treatment programs, and support families to develop consistent, safe, structured home settings that facilitate recovery.

Wilderness Youth Project connects children from all ages, abilities and socioeconomic backgrounds to the essential benefits of time in nature. Time in nature makes children smarter, healthier and happier. We take our participants to creeks, beaches, mountain trails, and open spaces to focus on child-centered exploration, awareness, and the building of naturalist skills.

Now more than ever, nature’s power to boost our wellness is so important.  Nature is open for us to enjoy in many ways. With your support, we continue providing inspiration and tools for nature connection.
