REMINDER: ANNUAL HOLIDAY PARTY AT MY OFFICE THIS THURSDAY EVENING!
Let's celebrate and support local students this holiday season
You're invited to my annual Open House Holiday Party, where we can celebrate the positive work we did together in 2017, support local students, and taste my homemade healthy pumpkin pie! 

Our Holiday Open House and 19th Annual Verde School Holiday Drive will be at my District Office in El Cerrito on Thursday, December 7 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

We'll enjoy light appetizers and refreshments and chat about what we're grateful for and what we can accomplish together in the future. 
    
The party is also an opportunity to gather donations  so that custom school spirit Hoodies and new books are provided to every student at Verde Elementary School in North Richmond. 
 
To donate, drop off your check or cash at our Open House, or mail your donation to my office (address below). Checks should be made payable to "CHDC of North Richmond" with "Verde School Drive" in the memo. (Donations must be received by December 8.)

Thanks to great work by parents, educators and students, Verde is a shining light in North Richmond. We are proud to support the success of these children over the past 19 years, and we need your help again this year.
