Poverty is not an accident. Like slavery and apartheid, it is man-made and can be removed by the actions of human beings.

​Homelessness is a circumstance through which people pass, not a personal characteristic. Asking for help is never easy, and yet thousands of people each year go to COTS, the Petaluma Kitchen, and the Mary Isaak Center seeking shelter, supplies, or food for themselves or their families.

As in prior years, our Red Barn Community has joined together to do our part to support these organizations and programs that support the families who need our help!

This Monday, November 14th, we will place a collection bin at the front of the school for your donations to these organizations and to the families who need them.  The bin will remain there for the week.  

​All donated items are welcome, but please check out the "Needed Items" list, linked to the right, as there are some food items that are in greater need than others.  Although it is not our main goal with this food drive, if you're also interested in donating some non-food items that you may have at home, please refer to the list in the left-hand column.

Our goal is to donate every item on the wishlist and, more!
Can YOU help us?!
We will leave a large metal collection bin outside the front door for your donated items.
