Thankful giving

It’s generally during the holidays that folks are most generous with their giving, this year remember that there are some great Alameda organizations that can use your help to assist in furthering their mission.   Since food is almost always at the forefront of our minds when thinking about the holidays consider donating food, time, or money to the Alameda Food Bank.   The Food Bank has recently moved into a brank spanking new building at their current location off Constitution, from the Alameda Sun:

…The new building is a grand 2,065 square feet, outshining the former facility by some 500 square feet. Kahn showed off the larger work area for volunteers, while Russell showed his “pride and joy,” the spacious waiting area and children’s play corner. Both are looking forward to better serving the hungry in the city with a facility that accommodates more clients and provides space for more storage and administration as well…

But of course there are many other worthy organizations that deserve your support such as:

• Boys and Girls Club
• Meals on Wheels
• Alameda Education Foundation
• Alameda Library Foundation
• ACLO
• Alameda Museum
• Alameda Point Collaborative
• Friends of the Library
• Friends of the Parks
• Midway Shelter
• Girls Inc.

And I’m sure there are many more, but those are the ones I could think of off the top of my head.
