Jacob’s Heart Where: 680 West Beach Street, Watsonville Website: JacobsHeart.org Contact Information: 831-724-9100 and Info@JacobsHeart.org Jacob’s Heart has battled the impact of cancer on nearly 3,400 children and their families in California. The organization also founded September as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. But for the families it helps, Jacob’s Heart is so much more than an awareness organization. The group partners with donors, volunteers, and providers to offer support to families impacted by pediatric cancer. It’s a source for transportation to medical treatment, social guidance, counseling, basic-needs care, and financial support. You can donate today by contacting Jacob’s Heart. It’s traditional to give back, volunteer, or donate during the holiday season, and if you’re searching for a new cause to support, look no further than these wonderful organizations.

In April 2014, Monterey community members started a weekly hot lunch at San Carlos Cathedral Hall to help the more than 500 homeless women in their region. Since then, lunch has transformed into a resource for emergency assistance, referrals, clothing, showers, and additional guidance for homeless women. Today, Gathering for Women relies on community donations and volunteers to operate its day center and offer services three days each week. Learn more or donate by contacting Gathering for Women.

In 2016, Dr. Jonathan Fradkin and Dyana Klein mourned the loss of their beloved dog, Max. While they were incredibly heartbroken, they were comforted to know they did all they could to extend his life. That gratitude came with a sobering reality: Not everyone can afford pet care. To help ease the burden, Fradkin — a veterinarian — and Klein, who is a veterinarian tech, began Max’s Helping Paws Foundation. Through donations, the organization supports and funds veterinary costs for owners in need. You can donate or apply for support by contacting Max’s Helping Paws.
