Together we can make a difference!
The community of Carpinteria supported me in so many ways as I grew up. it is my joy and privilege to give back in any way I can; which is why I donate a portion of each sales commission I make to the Carpinteria non-profit 501(c)(3) of my client’s choice. Below is a list of community organizations I volunteer with and contribute as well. These organizations are making our community a better place child by child and day by day.

Carpinteria Education Foundation (CEF) exists to:
Promote Excellence in Education
To Channel Private Sector Resources to Carpinteria Unified School District (CUSD)
To Inform and Involve the Community of the Needs of the School District
We are fortunate to be part of a supportive community that fosters a strong commitment to the schools and Carpinteria children. To protect and enhance the quality of life in our community, and to insure the value of our homes and property, we must continue to provide supplemental support for the educational and cultural enrichment opportunities for all students in the district.
Together, we can ensure our local children are on the cutting edge of technology, enriched by participating in the arts, have the opportunity to carry on Carpinteria’s rich agricultural economy, and compete in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) as they enter a workforce that continues to evolve.
Carpinteria, our beloved Southern California beach town, is known for its small-town charm and big-hearted community. While our high school aquatics program has thrived, utilizing the city pool for practices and competitions, it faces challenges. Rental fees strain the school's budget, limiting practice time and access for students. Moreover, our diverse community has students who would greatly benefit from increased access to high school aquatics programs.
Our high school students deserve a pool of their own, a source of pride for both the school and the community. Government funding falls short of this need, making it imperative for us to establish this foundation.
The impact of this initiative extends beyond the aquatics program. We aim to expand access to all students, offer vocational training in the blue economy sector, and enhance our athletes' chances of reaching the highest levels of competition. Additionally, the high school will generate rental income from the pool, benefiting various school programs.
With your support, we can make this vision a reality. Join us in creating a brighter future for Carpinteria's youth and our community.
The United Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Barbara County (UBGC) serves more than 2,700 children ages 6-18 and their families at four Club locations: Carpinteria, Santa Barbara Westside, Goleta, and Lompoc. In addition, we have three school sites and one 55-acre residential Camp in the Santa Ynez mountains. UBGC fills the gap between school and home by providing after-school and summer programming in a safe environment where there is an opportunity to learn skills through positive reinforcement from caring and professional staff. These programs change lives in three core ways: by encouraging academic success; building good character and leadership; and teaching healthy lifestyles.
