"Members of Brownie Troop 60125 volunteered at the Family Giving Tree warehouse in Sunnyvale on Dec. 7, sorting, wrapping and organizing gifts and getting them ready for bagging for the nonprofit's Holiday Wish Drive. The troop also hosted a Virtual Giving Tree along with Junior Troop 60174, adopting 25 wish cards, and used cookie sale proceeds to shop for gifts at Pennyland Toys in Campbell, which offered the troops a discount."
"Sunnyvale School District hosted its first December districtwide food kit distribution on Dec. 19, providing nutrition support to families ahead of the two-week winter break. This effort comes in direct response to testimony from families at a recent Board of Education meeting, who emphasized how critical school meals were to their children during the recent government shutdown. Building on the strong turnout of more than 400 participants at the Thanksgiving distribution last month, multiple district departments collaborated to meet demand."
