Pleasanton May Day Strong Rally and Food Drive, a success!
Thank you for showing up, and bringing a tons of the donation for Tri-Valley Haven Food Pantry! We had over 300 protesters, great speakers, music, and lots of energy with so much honking from the passerby!
Thank you Julie Elfin to arrange a food drive. She delivered a car full of donation to the pantry, and reported that the pantry needs more donations. Please drop food between 11am and 3pm, Mon-Sat at 150 N L Street, Livermore. For more ways to help please visit trivalleyhaven.org. With the Federal funding cuts all the nonprofits need our support more than ever.
Jonathan Barbour of ProBonoPhoto joined us and donated great photos, and John Hughes provided our sound system. We appreciate all the support. Photos our volunteers are available here.
