11 Amazing Nonprofits to Support this Holiday Season

At Noto Group, we're thankful for all the wonderful mission-driven clients we partner with every day. From volunteering our time to providing executive recruitment services, we enjoy working with nonprofits that are making a difference.

Access Fund

Access Fund is a national organization dedicated to preserving climbing access and conserving the climbing environment. The Access Fund brings climbers together to fight for these areas, not just for access but for the integrity of these amazing places. Today, 1 in 5 climbing areas in the United States is threatened by an access issue—whether through land and resource development, unnecessarily restrictive regulation of climbing, or outright bans, the list of threats is long and constantly evolving.

Childswork Learning Center

Childswork Learning Center is a nonprofit early education school that has been serving families for over 30 years. They embrace a play-based, constructivist education approach that encourages children to explore their natural interests, take chances, and lead in their own learning. The staff consists of knowledgeable early childhood educators who share an average of 17 years education experience per co-led classroom. They are dedicated to providing a supportive, nurturing and encouraging environment for children and their families to develop relationships, discover new ideas, and cultivate a joy for learning.
