I think this is a wonderful program. I saw the donation box at my local library today (Santa Teresa) AND there was stuff in it! So exciting. I am glad there are programs like this happening in San Jose - it's just one of the things that makes me proud to be a San Jose native.

I'm so happy to see that there are programs like this! It's beautiful to see that people still care and are compassionate to one another, especially in the challenging times! Thank you!!!
