For the past 8 years, volunteers from unincorporated Cherryland, Congregation Shir Ami in Castro Valley, and members and friends of Eden Church have been addressing the food insecurity needs of residents in the 94541 zip code.Since the COVID-19 Crisis unfurled, participation in the Comida have grown exponentially as other area food pantries have had to close their doors for various reasons. 

On Wednesday, April 8, for example, Comida para Cherryland served 900 clients in 1 hour. Participation in Comida para Cherryland is expected to continue leapfrogging until the Shelter In Place Order is relinquished.  

 

This is an excellent opportunity to double your contribution, so please consider making a donation today. Together we can!
