Local 913 along with the other DC16 West Bay Locals Floor layers 12 & Glaziers 718 teamed up with San Mateo County Supervisor David Canepa & the Friends of Old Town to give Turkeys Eggs & Produce to families in need at Morellos Hall in South San Francisco. This annual event was our biggest yet with the addition of Second Harvest donating the Eggs and Produce ensuring that 200 families had a Happy Thanksgiving. All our DC16 Volunteers got to take a turkey home on top of their VAC credit. If you’re short a VAC there is still time to get them in before the end of the year. Next month the West Bay will be feeding the less fortunate as we do every month at the Menlo Park Cal Train Station. This reoccurring event happens every 3rd Tuesday of the month. December is an especially busy one so come out and help and bring any warm clothes you no longer need to donate.
The Local Contractors of Bayview Hunters Point D-10 Sponsored a HUGE Turkey Giveaway at the Double Rock Baptist Church in the Bayview Giving 2200 Turkeys away to the community. Anyone & Everyone could swing by and get a bird. This event showcased how Local Businesses benefit the community, not just by employing local trades people, but also by making sure they give back to everyone in this time of year. The BVHP D-10 contractors association will also be holding a Toy Drive. If you would like to donate a toy, bring it with you to the Local Membership meeting on December 4th at 6pm and you will be entered into a special raffle.
