The Paradise community has always been one that shows up for each other. This is evidenced in countless ways, but especially in the many community resources for Town of Paradise residents.
If you’re in need of assistance or know someone who is, please pass along this article!
Town of Paradise Community Resources
A Simple Gesture
A Simple Gesture’s goal is to make food collection, simple.
The process is seamless: Paradise and Magalia residents sign up to receive a reusable “Green Bag” to fill with nonperishables. On a predesignated pickup date, volunteers collect the Green Bags from local’s doorsteps, and donate the items to local food pantries. Click here to sign up to fill a bag.
Moms Of The Ridge

Moms of the Ridge just opened their very first space, where they’ll host workshops, support groups, and so many more fun and free events for moms and their kids.
