Delivering hope and encouragement to families in Northern California.
About Us
A Day of Hope is a program of the ASI at California State University, Stanislaus. For the 2011 season we have joined forces with Enclave Community Church in order to better serve our community. We provide a basket of holiday food and a turkey to hundreds of homeless or under-resourced families in Stanislaus county each Thanksgiving. To accomplish this, we collaborate with the public and business members in conducting fundraising events and collecting donations.

Our mission:
To inspire hope and encouragement for people in need through the compassionate actions of the volunteers and the donation of food items, so that families may be able to enjoy a complete holiday meal they would not have had otherwise.
