All MCF's Donations will be for Rental Assistance; West Marin Fund Covid-19 Community Response
The Marin Community Foundation, in collaboration with the County of Marin, have determined all donations from this point forward for the COVID-19 pandemic response will be dedicated to rental assistance for our most economically vulnerable residents. This will help us mitigate the effects of loss of income as we continue to shelter in place. Please consider giving to help everyone remain housed during these challenging times. Those wishing to make a donation can do so by going to the Marin Community Foundation donation website: https://marincf.givecorps.com/causes/14681-covid-19-fund-of-mcf
