Why We Serve
Alameda County established an emergency grocery distribution program in response to the COVID-19 pandemic at the Alameda County Fairgrounds in Pleasanton. In late 2020 OHK was asked to assume co-management of the operations in partnership with the Alameda County Community Food Bank and the Tri-Valley Haven. The emergency grocery distribution ended in December 2021, but there was still a need in the community for this grocery assistance. We began operating "pop-up pantries" at locations in Dublin and Pleasanton. Nearly 26,000 Tri-Valley residents are struggling to meet their basic and essential needs.
