Headed by Maribel Cano, Emergency Relief Outreach Coordinator, UFW and the group of volunteers did an exceptional job in coordinating and hosting this event, and they are sure making an impact to those in need. These organizations have tentatively scheduled to host these relief events every 1st Friday of each month. The participants thanked Maribel for her amazing support in serving families in need throughout California, and we wish her the best in all future endeavours.
The event could not have the success without the support and continuous donations from Friends of Field Workers, and many agencies, organizations, volunteers and individuals that contributed to the efforts.
