More Support over the years:
CTO has given to many organizations and individuals over the last 8 years. Please have a look at what we have supported and how we continue to hope to make a difference!
Gabriel's House
Kids at Gabriel's House
CTO has been working to provide for the many needs in our community, from supporting the victims of the Borderline shooting tragedy, assisting families after the Woolsey and Hill fires, and assisting in the COVID pandemic relief efforts, in addition to providing for teens and families like we have in the past. The benefit of CTO is that we are able to move quickly in responding to the needs as they arise.
Please read about some of the nonprofit organizations we have supported:
Harbor House where we provided money so that the homeless seniors could be housed in hotels. We also provided lunches during the COVID pandemic for the homeless and children that are normally receiving lunch in the school program. Harbor House Thousand Oaks - Home (harborhouseto.org)
Gabriel's House, A Place of Hope where CTO gave a recent donation to help end the cycle of homelessness by encouraging, equipping and empowering women and children that reside at Gabriel's House.

We are always asking "how can we help?"

HUNGRY GOATS
A group of clever Oak Park high school students started an effort to raise money for 'targeted grazing' by happy and hungry goats. After the devastation of the Woolsey fire in the Agoura and surrounding areas, the fire and fuel management by goat herds has proven an effective way of managing potential fire kindle with minimal damage to surrounding grass and soil. CTO was happy to support the fundraising efforts of the high schoolers.
COVID
Global Pandemic: In March 2020, COVID-19 emerged in almost all communities in the world, causing a worldwide pandemic. The mandated changes to help stop the spread of the virus have proven to be a phenomenal disruption to daily life as we know it. Most importantly, the crisis magnified the needs of the poor and disadvantaged in our community. All of the area nonprofits working with the homeless, food insecure, at-risk youth, veterans, and working poor have increased demand for assistance. CTO has partnered with many of the nonprofits to provide food, medical supplies and care, basic housing, educational materials and much needed psychological support.
