Charity
In 2012, the Marin Sonoma Concours gifted $70,000 to our charity partners – organizations providing important and valued services in our communities. We again look forward to supporting the efforts of these organizations with proceeds from the 2013 Marin Sonoma Concours d’Elegance.
Hospice By The Bay
Serving Marin, Sonoma, San Francisco, Northern San Mateo counties.
Founded in 1975 by a group of compassionate volunteers with a vision for helping those facing terminal illness, Hospice By The Bay is the second oldest hospice provider in the United States and the first on the West Coast. As a non-profit, community-based program, Hospice By The Bay is dedicated to providing the highest quality hospice and palliative care services to patients and families coping with serious illness. Our goal is to allow patients to live in comfort, with dignity, in their home of choice, surrounded by those they love.
The Hospice By The Bay skilled team of nurses, medical directors, social workers, spiritual counselors, home health aides, volunteers, and grief counselors offer patients and families the medical, practical, emotional, and spiritual support so essential during this difficult time. Our team provides family members and caregivers with the support they need to help care for their loved ones and to cope with their own feelings of grief and loss.
Hospice By The Bay’s programs are funded through healthcare reimbursement and financial donations from community members, businesses and corporations. We raise funds to ensure that patients and families have access to our compassionate care regardless of personal circumstance; to meet the end-of-life health care needs of underserved populations; and to support new and innovative care programs such as pediatric hospice and palliative care and grief support for children. Hospice By The Bay’s vision is a community where hospice care and support services are accessible to every person and every family who needs them.
Throughout the years, Hospice By The Bay has evolved from a grassroots, volunteer-based agency to its position as an industry leader. Today, Hospice By The Bay is a licensed, Medicare-certified, regional provider of palliative and end-of-life care serving more than 300 Bay Area patients and families every day.

Boys & Girls Clubs of Marin and Southern Sonoma Counties
Serving over 4,700 in Petaluma, San Rafael and Sausalito/Marin City
In every community, boys and girls are left to find their own recreation and companionship in the streets. An increasing number of children are at home with no adult care or supervision. Young people need to know that someone cares about them.
It is our mission to enable all youth, especially those who need us most, to realize their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Marin and Southern Sonoma Counties offer that and more. We operate Monday through Friday from the end of the school day through at least 6 p.m. and during the summer from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm.
The fee for children to participate in our programs and services is only $10 per year per child and no child is ever turned away due to inability to pay. All of the programs we offer fall under at least one of our five core areas. These five core program areas are Health and Life Skills, Sports, Fitness and Recreation, Character and Leadership Development, Education and Career Development, and the Arts.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Marin and Southern Sonoma Counties has been serving youth and children for over 50 years in Petaluma, San Rafael and Sausalito/Marin City.
