To promote individual dignity and support the health and well-being for at risk members of our community through compassionate services and resources.

Give a gift that transforms lives this
Giving Tuesday

Every $ you give fills the gaps that restricted grants can’t address. Your contribution allows us to meet our community's needs with the responsiveness and compassion that our contracts don’t always accommodate. It gives us the freedom to support people and programs exactly where it's needed, without the strings attached.

Your generous donation helps us fund homeless prevention, housing, food for families, and HIV support for rural residents across six counties.

This year Sierra HOPE is combining our Giving Tuesday campaign goal with our Annual Appeal. 

Your gift today goes directly to programs making a difference in Calaveras and neighboring counties. Every dollar supports housing, food security, and critical health services—ensuring no one in our community has to go without basic needs.

Let’s make today count. Join us by donating now and helping us spread hope across our community. Together, we’re making sure every person has the dignity and support they deserve.

​Help us help our neighbors, because a car is not a home. Working families should not have to decide between paying rent or buying food. People living with HIV deserve our support to lead productive lives. Your Giving Tuesday contribution will help us meet critical needs and create hope for the future.

Thank you for standing with us!
