We have many volunteer opportunities including mentoring, collecting and distributing needed items to victims, and working behind the scenes to assist in getting victims back to leading a normal life.
The Santa Clarita Coalition is a 501c3 established to connect other Santa Clarita non-profits and stakeholders in a number of support areas with our primary focus in the Santa Clarita Valley.
