Dear Parents and BHS Community Members,

 

First off - a big thanks to those donors who have already contributed.  Your
generosity is helping us on our way to make a bigger and better Holiday Meal
than ever.  We are on our way, but with a large crowd anticipated could use
a little more help.  

 

The annual Holiday Meal will take place THIS Saturday, December 10.  This
special event features over 100 BHS students serving a warming meal,
offering clothing, books, shoes, toys, blankets and providing entertainment
for some 300-500 homeless or low-income people and families in the Berkeley
community.

 

We are seeking fresh food or monetary donations to help us put on this
special event.  What we are most in need at this point is pre-cooked
turkeys, hams, potato or yam-based dishes.  

 

Monetary donations are also a huge help to buy basics such as butter, sugar,
flour, foil and other food to round out our meal.  They will also help us
cover decorations and entertainment to make this not only a belly filling
but heartwarming experience for those that attend.  

 

Fresh food donations can be delivered between 4:30pm-7pm on Friday, December
9 or 8am-12pm of Saturday, December 10 to the main doors of the school at
Milvia and Allston.  Please indicate what time you would like deliver your
donation.  

 

Monetary donations are accepted as cash in the Leadership Office (make sure
it gets to Mr. Young) or as checks written to "BHS Student Activities" with
"Holiday Meal" in the memo line.  These donations are tax deductible and a
letter of receipt with the school tax ID number will be given upon request.
They can be mailed to:
