Volunteers are standing by to get your back-to-school donations to the people who need them.

Volunteers are still needed to donate or help distribute clothing to low-income families for back-to-school.  On Friday, August 17th from 2pm - 7pm,  at the Coastside Hope Warehouse (214 Harvard, Pillar Point Harbor) we’ll be sorting clothing into gender and sizes.  On Saturday, August 18th from 3pm - 6pm, at the warehouse, we’ll need help giving clothing away.  You don’t need to stay all day, feel free to come for just an hour.  Any time you can give will be a big help.

Friday is the last day to donate. Coastside Hope is collecting clean, used clothing and shoes to share with low-income families in time for back to school.  We’ll happily take clothes that have been laundered, shoes in usable condition, and coats and jackets. Clothing can be dropped off at our main office at 99 Avenue Alhambra (next to the El Granada EZ Mart) during office hours, M-F 8:30 - 5:00pm. We are also accepting any backpacks, and school supplies for kids heading back ot school. Call Susie Maya at 650-726-9071 if you have any questions.

Coastside Hope is a 5013(c) non-profit and your contributions are tax deductible.
