The Pacific Beach Coalition is honored to participate in Coastside Gives this year. Coastside Gives is an annual philanthropic event on the San Mateo County coast on May 1, 2025.

Early giving starts April 1 — and you can support our campaign today!

Can we count on you to help us reach our fundraising goal of $25,000? Every dollar counts.

Your support will help us fulfill our mission to:

• Grow our Naturalist program, which brings ocean education to life at our monthly events
• Reach and inspire more young students at local school assemblies
• Increase training and leadership opportunities for volunteer Teen Site Captains
• Purchase native plants for restoration projects
• Recruit and engage new volunteers to become Earth Heroes
• Educate more people about climate change and inspire them to act

If you’ve joined one of our monthly beach cleanups or habitat restorations and took home lasting memories, we hope you’ll consider contributing to our fund so we can continue to serve the community for years to come.

Learn more about our fundraising campaign on the Coastside Gives website. You can make a donation to PBC on our dedicated page and to other organizations that you love.
