Capitola Cares, a 501 (c) (3) tax deductible non-profit, was founded to foster hope and collaboration at a time when many people are feeling the strain of national divisiveness. Through fundraising, information sharing, advocacy, and civic participation, Capitola Cares supports community well-being in the areas of health, education, economic vitality, environmental stewardship, public safety, and lifelong enrichment — while encouraging residents to take an active role in shaping their community’s future.
