Tax Deductible Donations | Sonoma Overlook Trail • Montini Open Space Preserve

Since its inception, the Sonoma Overlook Stewards, an all-volunteer organization, make possible educational and interpretive materials, trail maintenance and improvements, and fundraising to support all Sonoma Overlook Trail concerns. The Overlook Trail relies on generous contributions from members of the community. Please lend your support!

To help fund our efforts with your tax deductible donation, send contributions to:

Sonoma Overlook Trail
Box 431
Sonoma, CA 95476

Or, donate HERE!

The Sonoma Overlook Trail partners with the City of Sonoma, which owns the land. For your tax-deductible donations, Sonoma Overlook Trail is fiscally sponsored by the Sonoma Ecology Center, a California non-profit 501(c)(3).

If you are interested in making a more substantial investment in Sonoma Overlook Trail, we would be delighted to speak with you. Please contact us at Hike@OverlookMontini.org.

The all-volunteer Sonoma Overlook Trail Stewards need your tax-deductible support to continue our work. Please keep us in your thoughts as you make your year-end donations this giving season!

We receive over 60,000 visits a year, making us, in a sense, the largest nonprofit in Sonoma! All of this impact wears on the trail and surrounding trail corridor. Every dollar we receive goes directly to the care of the Overlook.

We each have our reasons for visiting the Overlook Trail. Some come to see the trees, the wildflowers, hawks, turkeys and deer, or to watch their kids catch (and release!) a lizard. For some, it’s about elevation gain, heart rate and calorie burn. The Overlook can be a social stroll, or a place to talk things through up at the Meadow Loop as you sweep your eyes down the Valley and out to sea. And, especially these days, it’s a sanctuary, an escape from the facets of life that wear on us.

Our ongoing work to keep the Overlook in shape requires investment in tools and other supplies, outreach materials, and sometimes the help of specialized crews to undertake the heavier, more technical endeavors that shape our sometimes-rocky trail into a condition that allows more to enjoy it.

This essential Sonoma paradise—and all who find connection in it—relies on you. So we ask: If you are inspired to contribute to the tending of this special place, please make a tax-deductible donation to the cause.
