Christmas Distribution 2022

  

 

Traditionally, late November and early December is when we begin preparation for the Children’s Emergency Food Bank annual Christmas Distribution. This is an event that involves a large number of volunteers from the JKPC congregation, the Dublin/San Ramon Women’s Club and various other organizations including several Girl and Boy Scout Troops. A large amount of food is purchased and delivered to Fellowship Hall. In addition, this year the Congregation, John Knox Coop Preschool and The Cornerstone Realtor Team of Dublin conducted Food Drives to support the project. It was then put into two apple boxes that are eventually given to the families who have registered and come to pick them up on the second Saturday of December. Each family is also given a $20.00 Safeway gift card toward the purchase of Holiday meats.

 

This year we prepared 100 sets of boxes. 43 sets went to our regular clients and JKPC families. 12 sets went to the Dublin Unified School District. 15 sets went to St. Raymond Catholic Church’s food distribution program, 12 sets went to Monthly Miracles and 18 sets went to Hively Child Care.

 

  During 2022 we distributed food 302 times to 59 different families through our regular program.
