2026 Nonprofit of the Year
We’re honored to share that Share Ourselves has been named the 2026 Nonprofit of the Year for California’s 73rd Assembly District by Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris. This recognition celebrates more than five decades of service to Orange County and reflects the heart of our mission: delivering whole-person care and affirming that health is everything.
From medical, dental, behavioral health, and pharmacy services to food assistance and social support, we continue to meet the needs of thousands of neighbors each year regardless of ability or inability to pay. This honor also highlights the expansion of our work, including our new Costa Mesa Health Center, which brings integrated care together under one roof to better serve our community.
We are deeply grateful to our staff, volunteers, donors, and partners whose compassion and commitment make this work possible every day. This recognition belongs to all of you and it energizes us to keep showing up for every neighbor with excellence, dignity, and care.

Scholarship Program
This spring, Share Ourselves celebrated 24 first-generation college students as they took the next step toward higher education. Each student received a $1,000 scholarship, a laptop, gift cards for school supplies, and the encouragement of a community that believes in their future.
More than financial support, the program honors the determination and resilience it takes to be the first in a family to pursue college. By investing in these students today, we're creating opportunities that strengthen families and our community for generations to come.

Anniversary Spotlight
A Decade of Care
In 2016, Share Ourselves opened the Beauchamp Children & Family Dental Center in Newport Beach to expand access to dental care for children and families across Orange County. This care was made possible through the generosity and leadership of the Beauchamp family, whose commitment to accessible dental care continues to shape its work today. The center provides exams, cleanings, X-rays, fillings, and preventive care with a focus on identifying issues early and supporting long-term oral health.
Over the past decade, the Beauchamp Children & Family Dental Center has served thousands of patients and helped create consistent access to pediatric and family dental care for the community.
“We believe that starting early — giving children access to preventive care and education — can change long-term health outcomes. Ten years later, seeing that care reach so many families is deeply meaningful to our family.” - The Beauchamp Family
