Holiday assistance may be provided for families who are having a difficult financial time during the holidays.
Our goal is to help Castro Valley students have happy holidays so that they may continue to be successful in school.
Applications are required to participate in this program.
Students are required to be enrolled in CVUSD.
If you wish to apply for the program, please fill out the application by Sunday 10/31/2021. All information is confidential. Once your application has been processed, a committee member will contact you via email. It is very important that you check your email for updates from
CastroValleyOutreach@gmail.com.
Since there are multiple distribution sites doing food distribution, CVO is not holding a canned food drive this year. If you need information as to those resources, please let us know. Families will get a $50 gift card to purchase food for your Thanksgiving meal. You will need to pick up the gift card on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, November 20, 2021. We are also bringing back the Adopt-A-Family program, so children will receive clothing, shoes & one requested gift with a $40 value. Those gifts will be coordinated with a representative from CVO who will deliver your gifts the week of December 13th.
Before you begin our application, please know the sizes for your student for T-Shirt, Pants, Jacket, Pajamas, and Shoes. Also, please know what gift they would like to request.
CV Outreach is funded entirely by donations from participating schools, local residents, and businesses. Without the support of the community and the volunteers who freely donate their valuable time, this organization could not exist.
