Volunteer

You or your group can support Pacific Clinics in numerous ways by giving of your time through volunteering. Our volunteers are dedicated and compassionate individuals and groups who aim to make their community and the world a little brighter for children, youth, adults and families in need.

Bay Area Opportunities

Retail Auxiliaries

Turnkey Events

Are you a local business interested in giving back to the neediest in our community? Pacific Clinics is always seeking business partners to help raise money and awareness for the children, youth, adults and families we serve. In the past, businesses of all sizes have contributed by:

• Designating one day as “Pacific Clinics” day and donating a percentage of the sales to Pacific Clinics.
• Hosting an open house at a store to raise awareness or donations for Pacific Clinics.
• Organizing fundraising events such as golf or bowling tournaments, walk/swim-a-thons or charity luncheons/fashion shows. 

Pacific Clinics’ fundraising department can assist you in launching, planning and supporting your fundraising efforts. We are willing to come to your event, speak about Pacific Clinics’ programs and provide literature and brochures. Contact Darren DeMonsi at 408-364-4058 or ddemonsi@pacificclinics.org.
