Feed Alameda County this Holiday Season

With the end of the CalFresh Emergency Allotments and continuing economic uncertainty, the situation for many families is dire. 1 in 4 residents in Alameda County now depend on food bank assistance. It's a staggering statistic, and it paints a clear picture of the widespread hunger our neighbors are experiencing. No one should have to endure the anxiety of not knowing where their next meal will come from.

In Alameda County, local food banks play a crucial role. By working together and with the help of a network of partnerships, these food banks distribute the equivalent of 1 million meals of food every week.

As we approach the holiday season, let's rally together to ensure that no one in our community goes to bed hungry. By supporting our local food banks and programs, we can extend a helping hand to those who need it most.

I believe that a community's strength lies in its ability to care for one another. That's why I'm committed to matching donations, up to $10,000, to tackle hunger in Alameda County. Your generosity can change lives and bring hope to those facing adversity.

Join me in the fight against hunger, and let's ensure that every resident in Alameda County has access to the food they need, especially during the holiday season.
