Poverty Patch Up Steps Up With Donations During Government Shutdown

From Dublin to Milpitas to Mission San Jose, over 1,500 donations were collected by students who chose compassion when it mattered most. After Former Mayor Hernandez and Vice Mayor Quadri saw our impact, they came forward to see our change at our event. During a government shutdown, when SNAP support is uncertain and families are facing increasing challenges, our community didn’t step back; We stepped forward. We proved that kindness can move cities and that youth can lead meaningful change.

Poverty Patch Up Hosts Annual Awards Banquet to Recognize Volunteers 

On June 4th, Poverty Patch-Up’s chapters gathered together to showcase all of the continuous hard work for the past year. It was a surplus of emotions across the great food, speeches, and laughter. Thank you to every donor, volunteer, supporter, and partner who has believed in our efforts. Together, we will continue pushing forward to help the homeless all across the world.

Poverty Patch Up Assembles and Distributes Hundreds of Meals to the Homeless

Our members prepared 200+ burritos from scratch — cutting, cooking, and assembling everything. Each meal package included two loaded burritos (beans, rice, fajitas, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream & spicy sauce), a banana, two snacks, a water bottle, and napkins. Our founder Shivani and VP Hasini then drove 45 minutes to Oakland to personally deliver the meals directly to unhoused communities. We’re so proud and grateful for opportunities like this. 

Poverty Patch Up Mobilizes Volunteers to Make First-Aid Kits for Homeless Shelters 

Poverty patch-up made over 100 kits that are shipped to the homeless shelters in the Bay Area. The kits contained zinc treatment, alcohol pads, band aids, hand sanitizer, and healing ointment. After COVID 19, hundreds of shelters ran out of such essentials- we are happy to patch more hearts.
