Make a Gift With Infinite Impact
First Responders face immense pressures, trauma, and emotional burdens that most of us can hardly imagine. Their mental wellness is not optional, it’s essential. The One805 Mental Wellness Endowment Fund ensures our First Responders and their families have access to the professional counseling they desperately need and deserve, in perpetuity.
Donation Options
There are ways to give to One805, that you may not have ever considered.
One805 2026 Honorary Board Waitlist is officially open!
Please submit your interest form HERE.
As a One805 Honorary Board member, you are one of our most important supporters. In return, you will receive an invitation to our Honorary Board reception on February 19th, 2026, with the Sheriff and Chiefs of Santa Barbara County, advance event ticket sales and ticket discounts for One805LIVE! 2026, opportunities to meet our local Chiefs, invitations to Honorary Board only events, and much more.
#1 is gifting shares from your investment portfolio, especially those you have held for some time and that may have appreciated considerably. This can allow you to release the full value of the shares. For example, if you have a chunk of Apple Stock you bought many years ago, and it is impossible to realize the full value of it due to the taxable capital gains, you can donate it to One805 and release 100% of the value as a tax-deductible donation to a 501 (c)(3).
Please consult your tax advisor as individual circumstances may vary
Have you considered a legacy gift? Many people choose to leave a significant donation to a non-profit, payable on their passing. It is a wonderful gift to give One805, as your legacy will live on, helping care for our next generation First Responders, so they can care for your next generation of family.
All of our funds are managed locally, by Merrill Lynch. Please contact donations@One805 if you think either of these options might be something you would like to discuss. We thank you for your ongoing support of our First Responders!
