Carmel Cares is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit Organization and our EIN is 85-3432174. We are an extremely efficient and transparent organization with a Platinum rating by the Guidestar/Candid rating service. All our administration and project management is performed by volunteers. While we have some pretty capable volunteers, we hire local professional gardeners and contractors on tasks that are too strenuous or require specific skills and purchase tools and materials for our volunteers.  You can see the some of our accomplishments in the last year in this City staff report and this video.
We know you love this town and thanks to generous people like you, our work to keep Carmel beautiful, safe, and inviting will continue. The most financially efficient way to make a donation is to mail us a check, but you can also make a donation online using PayPal, a Credit Card, Venmo (@CarmelCares) or Zelle (CarmelCare1@gmail).
