Local Christmas Toy Drive
This will be JKPC's 5th year in joining this event! Thank you to Blue Oaks Church in Pleasanton for coordinating this mission.
The Blue Oaks Church Christmas Toy Drive is focusing on the 250+ “unhoused” /"housing insecure" children and their families in the Pleasanton, Dublin and Livermore public school districts. By becoming a Sponsor, you can help make this Christmas merry and bright for children in your neighborhood who often don’t know where their next meal or good night’s sleep will come from.

HEIFER LIVING GIFT MARKET
A Gift that keeps on Giving…
Through Heifer International, animals and trees can be purchased on behalf of a family in need, allowing the family to create income and a future for their community. Giving an animal is like giving someone a small business, providing wool, milk, eggs and more. Animal donations can provide families a hand up, increasing access to medicine, school, food and a sustainable livelihood.
Your animal donation will support the lives of families in need. The one you choose is up to you.
JKPC purchased over $800 in sustainable gifts from Heifer in 2024!
We are excited to see what 2025 will bring. Our Heifer Living Gift Market will kick off Sunday, 11/23 and donations will be accepted through 12/14.
You can shop Heifer all year round, too, but visiting their site: www.heifer.org
