SAN LEANDRO, CA — The San Leandro-based community center Davis Street provided over 1,250 pre-packaged holiday baskets to families and senior households in need on Thursday. Along with a full Christmas meal, toys and gift cards, families also received a $100 bill, thanks to a $100,000 donation from an anonymous donor. With compound losses from the COVID-19 pandemic, Davis Street said their families have endured greater stresses during the holiday season. This donation, arriving from an "angel" donor for the second year in a row, made all the difference, according to the organization. "For many families, this special gift and allowed recipients to worry less about making ends meet this month and provided hope during a time where many are struggling," Davis Street wrote in a press release. More information on the holiday basket program, along with Davis Street's other community resources, can be found on their website at www.davisstreet.org.
