The Santa Barbara Foundation is working to connect resources across Santa Barbara County. The platforms below are tools to find and offer resources and provide help to our community.
The United Way of Santa Barbara County, Hutton Parker Foundation, and Santa Barbara Foundation are leading the COVID-19 Joint Response Effort with members of the Foundation Roundtable to address the needs of individuals and families in Santa Barbara County as well as the nonprofits who serve them. Already, the applications received far outweigh the funding available. We need your support.
Find Help is an online platform that connects individuals to resources. Find food assistance, help to pay bills, and other free or reduced-cost programs, including new programs for the COVID-19 pandemic.
In times of crisis, communities come together to help one another. We at the Santa Barbara Foundation are inspired by the generous donors and volunteers who have stepped forward to provide funding, donations of vitally needed food and supplies, and essential volunteer work. The forums below provide opportunities for community members to support our non-profit organizations in need of food, supplies, volunteers, and financial contributions for needs related to the COVID-19 crisis.
