Equip Community

We were alerted to some school children in Novato who were in need of gifts during the holidays. Equip Executive Director, Katie Stafford, was able to get all the gifts on their lists. Big thanks to Kohl’s in San Rafael for offering us a friends and family discount and giving our nonprofit a tax exemption.

Happy Thanksgiving! We are so grateful for all of our supporters who help us continue our mission of serving the community. This week, Equip was made aware of 16 kids at San Pedro Elementary School who are currently homeless. Equip reached out to a contact at United Market and was able to get discounted gift cards to the store. Each student got $100 in gift cards to help support their family during the holiday season!

This Thanksgiving, we partnered with Finnegan's Marin and Chef Dara to help feed 21 families in need of food for Thanksgiving dinner. We are grateful for the College of Marin EOPS program for connecting us with disadvantaged students and their families who we can serve and spread some holiday cheer to!
