The Genesis House exists today because of the support we receive from the communities we serve. While we receive some funding from government agencies, those contracts cover about half of our annual operating costs. To make up the difference between contract income and the full cost of services we do several fundraising drives per year and we run our Community Jobs Project all year.

From March to July we solicit donations and in turn give people tickets to our Summer Open House. In addition, from September to December we accept donations and donors receive tickets to our Drug Abuse Seminar held just before Christmas. Since clients volunteer to participate in this effort, donors have an opportunity to talk to real people who know about the challenges of getting sober and staying sober. Ninety-five percent of the funds raised during these two campaigns goes toward direct client care.

The Community Jobs Project is another way we work to raise money by doing odd jobs in the Vallejo-Benicia area. Most of the jobs we take on involve manual labor. Clients in treatment learn valuable job skills, like; being punctual, following instructions, customer relations and taking pride in a job well done. The Jobs Project also allows our clients an opportunity to develop positive working relationships and support for making each project a team effort. The two annual ticket sales campaigns and the Community Jobs Project are supervised by paid staff.

Every February we hold a Spaghetti Feed and Silent Auction as a fundraiser. Businesses from near and far make donations of merchandise, services and money. This event is always well attended and features live music by Watersign, a local band made up of clean and sober musicians, door prizes and a 50/50 raffle.

We are a non profit 501(c)(3) organization and public charity under the Internal Revenue Code. We accept donations of every kind, all donations are tax deductable. Should you have any questions in regards to making a Donation or Monthly pledge, you may call our administration at 707-552-5295.
