Where Will Your Money Go?

Rancho Cielo is a 100-acre ranch in the foothills of Salinas, with an educational component, vocational training, and recreation for at-risk youth and first-time youth offenders giving them an opportunity to redirect their lives. Although our first students arrived on campus in 2004, the program has already demonstrated success, as measured by a 73% recidivism reduction rate. All proceeds will go directly to Rancho Cielo. Please see www.ranchocieloyc.org for more information!
