Do you or someone you know need assistance getting fresh and non-perishable food items? If so, stop by our Richmond campus every second Tuesday of the month from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. to pick up a bag or two of fresh produce along with non-perishable items. The distribution site is located at 217 Harbour Way. All are welcome.
Since the pandemic began, Catholic Charities East Bay has distributed approximately 334,000 pounds of food to local families. And even though many people have gone back to work, food insecurity continues for many families.
The food distribution is a collaboration between Catholic Charities East Bay, St. Vincent de Paul of Contra Costa and the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano.
