OlyCAP’s Open Doors Fund
CHANGE SOMEONE’S LIFE
The Open Doors Fund builds on the incredible legacy of the Peninsula Home Fund. Although we no longer administer the Peninsula Home Fund, we are continuing the work of helping children, families, and seniors in Clallam and Jefferson counties.
The Open Doors Fund will continue to aid more area residents with their emergency needs, ranging from medicine and clothing through food and utilities to vocational and education fees, as well as deposits for safe, drug-free shelter and electricity.
It is because of generous people like you that the North Olympic Peninsula is such a great place to live. Thank you again for being such a good neighbor.
I have to say, if it wasn’t for OlyCAP and its emergency funding programs… my son and myself would NOT have been able to survive here.
I couldn’t state this fact loud enough – that the Olympic Community Action Programs are the heart and soul of caring in Jefferson County and with their help, not only is my son well on his way to being successful in life, but I have been able to thrive and continue to live in Jefferson County due solely to the help we’ve received from OlyCAP.
