The simple gift of a toy will bring hope to children and relieve the stress of those parents who are not able to buy toys for their kids this Holiday season. TOY DRIVE FLYER SAN JOSE – TOY DRIVE FLYER Coat Drive This winter, many will be without the basic resources needed to keep warm and healthy. You can make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate by giving the gift of warmth to someone in need this holiday season. Organize a Coat Drive to reach the people in your city. Invite your family, friends, co-workers and community members to join you to collect new & gently-used coats. COAT DRIVE FLYER SAN JOSE – COAT DRIVE FLYER Hygiene Drive Many of the homeless that come to our doors don’t have the resources or money to purchase hygiene products. Being able to shave, brush their teeth, and get cleaned-up is important for increased self-esteem and also for good health. For many men, women and children – these products are a luxury. Hygiene items include: travel size soap, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, razor, shaving cream, and deodorant. A Hygiene Drive is a great way to help someone gain their confidence back and begin the path to a restored life. HYGIENE DRIVE FLYER SAN JOSE – HYGIENE DRIVE FLYER Food Drive We collect canned goods, peanut butter, pasta, rice, and beans all year round to provide groceries to hungry families and individuals. During the holidays, we have an even greater need as we provide holiday food boxes to those struggling with poverty.

CHESTER – BACKPACKS FOR SUCCESS FLYER SAN JOSE – BACKPACKS FOR SUCCESS FLYER PORTLAND – BACKPACKS FOR SUCCESS FLYER OAKLAND – BACKPACKS FOR SUCCESS FLYER Kids Helping Kids Today, many children are philanthropy minded and want to help other kids in need. One great area of need during the summer and holiday months is kid friendly food drives. Low-Income kids dread their vacations when they don’t have school breakfasts and lunches. Usually in low-income families, the parents are working and the kids are home. Hunger never takes a vacation. Our goal is to equip these kids with Kid Approved items that they can safely eat and enjoy. We have put together a shopping list that will help your kids know what type of food items we need the most for our food boxes or food pantry program. The most requested items are Mac & Cheese and different kinds of cereal. KID APPROVED FOOD BOX SHOPPING LIST FLYER SAN JOSE – KID APPROVED FOOD BOX SHOPPING LIST FLYER Questions?
