2020 has been a very challenging year with so many uncertainties, but we can brighten the holidays for homeless children, women, and recently housed families!

With your donation, Building Futures will purchase holiday gift cards, clothing, and toys for the children at the Alameda Midway Shelter and the other sites! They will also be able to fund other activities that support their clients this holiday season.

In addition, we invite each City of Alameda staff member to make a hand made greeting card (that will go to the client with the gift cards that gets purchased by Building Futures) with some encouraging words for the children and individuals that Building Futures serves. Please say "Dear Neighbor" so something general, to protect client confidentiality)- This is a great project to do with your kids too! The cards can be given to Sarah Henry via inter office mail or can be mailed to Building Futures at 1840 Fairway Drive, SL CA 95477 ATTN HOLIDAY CITY OF ALAM.

Please give whatever feels significant for you - every amount is appreciated!
