Marin Family Action provides hope and solutions to Marin's working individuals and families with children, some of whom are in danger of becoming isolated or homeless. Since 2008, we have been holding workshops for an increasing number of seniors who must remain working in order to keep their homes.

Also, throughout the year we present financial literacy workshops to teens which are designed to guide them to a secure and sensible financial future.

Please help us help our neighbors in need. Your tax-deductible donation will help us stabilize a family with shaky foundations or teach a young person to manage a budget before financial issues arise.

. . . one of the most exciting lessons of the Obama campaign: that ordinary people working for common purpose wield tremendous power. For those of us who work for our income and have modest means, it was unbelievable to watch ourselves become donors to a political campaign and find that those donations made a difference.
