Three Ways To Give Back

By Hiya Shah

With the New Year come fresh starts and new goals. Add donating to your list. I have rounded up a few organizations where you can make a difference.

Valley Humane Society- Do you love furry animals? Help VHS, a nonprofit animal organization.

How you can help- 
Visit www.unitedway.org and specify the donation for the agency number #765180. Furthermore, when your ink cartridges run out, don’t throw them away! Bring them to the Valley Human Center Tuesday to Saturday, 11 am- 5pm for recycling.

Kids against hunger- 
You may take the meals at your dinner table for granted, but millions of kids struggle to eat one nutritious meal a day. KAH is a nonprofit organization that provides nutritious food to impoverished children around the world.

How you can help- Donate here and find volunteer opportunities here. You can join food packing events and participate in fundraisers.

Pleasanton Partnerships in Education (PPIE)- 
Do you have kids, or are you a student in Pleasanton?
PPIE is a nonprofit Organization ensuring high-quality education in all 15 Pleasanton schools

How you can help– Donate here. You can participate in its annual events, like “Night of the Stars” and “Pleasanton Run for Education”.
