Toys for Tots

U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots Collection Program
Monday, December 4–Wednesday, December 20

The U.S. Marine Corps has held its annual Toys for Tots drive for more than 50 years and has turned it into a nationwide program. We ask for your assistance in their efforts by donating a shiny new gift that will go to underprivileged children in Contra Costa County.

Last year, we collected more than 1,200 gifts, and we hope to match that number again this year. Please look for the red barrels in your lobby, and thank you for your generosity.

Wardrobe for Opportunity
Clothing Drive

Wednesday, December 6

12667 Alcosta Boulevard, Suite 110 (BR15)

Looking to give back some good cheer this holiday season? We invite you to bring business clothes, shoes and accessories for both men and women to this clothing drive. This year, men’s suits and jackets, and women’s jewelry and plus-size suits are especially needed.

All contributions go to Wardrobe for Opportunity, an East Bay nonprofit organization empowering disadvantaged job seekers in Contra Costa and Alameda counties by providing them with suitable attire for job interviews. We hope you will participate with a gently used, work-appropriate donation (dry cleaned and on hangers, please).

Volunteers will be on hand to provide you with a receipt for tax purposes. For more information on Wardrobe for Opportunity, please visit its Web site at www.wardrobe.org.
