Where Your Donation Goes

Property Acquisition

Donations help us supplement project-level financing to acquire distressed residential properties across California — the first step toward creating an affordable home.

Rehabilitation & Renovation

Every property we acquire needs work. Your support helps fund the renovations that turn a distressed property into a safe, modern, livable home for a family.

Organizational Capacity

Contributions to our general operating fund help us build the organizational infrastructure to do more — pursuing more projects, serving more families.

The Candle Light Project is a federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. Our EIN is 88-0583716. Please consult your tax advisor regarding the deductibility of your contribution.
