MICOP is a proud collaborator with Ventura County Together. VC Together is a group of local organizations providing direct assitance to meet the basics needs: Food, Health, Shelter, and the 2-1-1 information and referral telephone helpline that connects callers to services such as food pantries, counseling and housing assistance.

MICOP is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, and all donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by current IRS requirements.
Donations of new or gently used clothing, food, disposable diapers, small toys and small appliances are always welcome.
The preferred food donations are dried pinto beans, plain white rice and Maseca (a brand of masa used for tortillas).
Small kitchen appliances such as blenders and toasters are appreciated. We specify "small" for toys and appliances because, unfortunately, there isn't enough room in the homes for bigger items. For the same reason we cannot accept donations of furniture.
Any donations can be brought to our monthly meetings after 3 p.m. on the day of the meeting (please see meeting schedule). To make other arrangements for donations or for more information about volunteering, please contact Donna at donna.foster@mixteco.org or call 805/320-0118.
