The Causes We Support

Ortman Mediation proudly supports these causes, each working to make the world a little brighter:

Operation Mend

Providing world-class care for post-9/11 military members, veterans, and their families, Operation Mend addresses both the physical and psychological wounds of war. We were inspired to give to this organization by my son, Seppi, who is a 1Lt. currently on active duty as a combat engineer in the 10th Mountain Division, and by one of my former middle school students, Captain Josh Hunsucker, an Army Ranger and Bronze Star recipient who led over 400 missions while deployed to Baghdad and is currently an attorney in the Sacramento area.

Upward Roots

Upward Roots empowers youth to become leaders and agents of change through youth-led, youth-driven community service. The organization believes in every young person’s potential to positively impact their community and provides the environment and support needed to activate their abilities. By leading service projects on issues they care about, participants build empathy, recognize their impact, and grow as confident leaders.

Oakland Lacrosse

Empowering public school students in Oakland through lacrosse, this organization helps youth build confidence, improve their health, and achieve their academic and life goals.

West Oakland Cultural Action Network

Preserving the rich cultural heritage of African American communities in Oakland, WOCAN’s Black Liberation Walking Tour highlights the history of these neighborhoods in the face of gentrification.

Protect Our Winters

A team of athletes and climate advocates, POW fights to protect winter sports and the environment by promoting clean energy solutions and climate action. Check out their website and consider joining me in supporting this great organization’s work so we can preserve our love of the mountains and winter sports for future generations.

OakLuv Foundation

Founded by Tripper's friend and Oakland native Alex Cox, the OakLuv Foundation brings joy to the Oakland community by providing schools and families with essentials and holiday cheer through programs like their Secret Santa which ensures that children are provided not only with essentials for success, but also with stockings full of joy at Christmas time.

Soroptimist International of Capitola

Supporting women and girls in achieving their educational and life goals, Soroptimist raises funds through programs like “Live Your Dream,” giving women the tools they need for success. I have been working with my birth mother, Kate McGuire, who spearheads many of the fundraising efforts for the organization, to ensure that all women and girls who would like to participate in their programs have that opportunity.
