Keep the line answered.

A recurring gift of any size keeps a bed made and a phone picked up.

$8,000

is roughly what it costs to run The Olive Press for a year. FY2025: $7,698 in, $7,702 out.

  1. 1 A small monthly gift covers a phone bill — the line a survivor calls in the middle of the night.
  2. 2 A mid-size monthly gift covers groceries for a week of intake at the South Mesa Drive house.
  3. 3 A larger monthly gift keeps Olif's Place stocked — beds made, supplies on the shelf, ready for the next call.

Recurring is preferred because it makes the line predictable — beds, food, and the 24-hour phone are easier to plan when the income arrives the same way every month.

One-time gifts are welcome too. Give what you can, when you can.

The Olive Press is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. EIN 81-0848123.

We started this house because no one would take us as we were. Your gift keeps the door open for the next person.
