Tis the season for our annual Holiday Wish Drive! ?? We believe that everyone should experience the joy of the holidays through the receipt of a gift that they have wished for. To fulfill the wish of a child, adult, or senior in need may not seem like much, but it's everything for someone who may not otherwise receive a gift. Want to help bring joy to families facing financial insecurity all across the Bay Area? Join us and let's spread holiday cheer together! ?? Follow the links below: ?

Empowering, Uplifting, and Uniting the Community through Kindness and Generosity
关于我们
For 34 years, the Family Giving Tree has been uplifting Bay Area families who face financial hardship by supporting them with school supply-filled backpacks and wished-for holiday gifts. What started as a San Jose State MBA project to help in-need children has grown steadily into an established, widely respected, nonprofit organization. Since its start in 1990, Family Giving Tree has served over 2,000,000 children and adults throughout the greater Bay Area. We dream of inspiring the values of kindness, philanthropy, and volunteerism to impact our community. With the invaluable support of our donors, sponsors, volunteers and drive leaders, Family Giving Tree leads two major drives each year. The Holiday Wish Drive fulfills children’s exact holiday gift wishes, and Back-to-School Drive provides backpacks filled with school supplies to K-12 children most in need.

Meet FGT's Newest Board Members! On the journey to a better world, even the smallest acts of kindness can move a mountain. We in the nonprofit sector live and breathe this philosophy everyday. And we are always looking for individuals who feel the same to join our journey towards filling this life with as much joy as possible. Three such people recently joined Family Giving Tree's board, and we could not be more delighted to introduce them to you. Over the past week, we've had the opportunity to sit down with Joanne Peters, PMP, SAPM, David Proulx, and Brenda Swiney, who all joined our board in September. Each of them is fascinating in their own way, but they share one unifying conviction:?to help those around them. Visit out blog and let us help you become acquainted. https://lnkd.in/gJdVnP54 #Nonprofit #BayArea #Philanthropy #MeettheTeam

Alation HQ was full of smiles last week for "Bring Your Kids to Work" day! ?? ?? ?? Activities in Redwood City included an office tour, scavenger hunt, games, coloring, and of course, snack time! Our Alationaut kiddos also helped pack backpacks for our Back to School Drive in partnership with Family Giving Tree. ?? It was rewarding to have our Alationauts fill backpacks with school supplies for under-resourced Bay Area students alongside their kids. ?? Join Alation if you're looking to be a part of a fun, caring, and hardworking #companyculture — see our open roles: https://lnkd.in/fxW2VUK P.S. Shoutout to Cindy Han, Christina Tran-Wu, Rosanna Sainez, Franco Anzini, Rajat Sinha, Jagannath Saragadam, Madyson McDaniel, and Marlene R. for organizing! ?? #bringyourkidtoworkday #alationlove

Thank you, Julianna Rose, for leading Fogarty Innovation's first formal volunteer effort; a back-to-school drive with Family Giving Tree to collect and distribute backpacks filled with school supplies to students whose families struggle to provide these essentials. Our goal was to donate 75 backpacks and fill 50 with school supplies; under Julie's leadership we collected 109 backpacks and filled 66. This complex endeavor required detailed organization, consistent cheerleading, and much herding of cats. Thank you, Julie, for making this happen! #rockstar #givingback
