Order Pies Here: OUR Pies for Purpose Order Form
Oakland Uptown Rotary (OUR) club is proud to invite you to participate in our third annual Pies For Purpose event. This is your opportunity to purchase pies for your Thanksgiving holiday meal and/or to donate pies to brighten the holiday meal of those in need. Spread a little joy through dessert at your table or someone else’s.
For 2024, we have partnered with Pacific Fine Foods Catering to support us fulfill this year’s pie orders. And we have partnered with 3 local organizations to be OUR Recipients of Pies. This year we are gifting pies in the community through the following non-profits:
Davis Street Community Center
Since 1972, Davis Street has been a key community leader in guiding families and individuals out of poverty and into productive lives by helping others help themselves. Their ability to provide a full range of necessary services, from medical care and child care to food and clothing, is unique from any other local organization.
CityTeam
CityTeam is founded on meeting local needs. Their programs across the United States offer help and hope to our neighbors in need with hot meals, groceries, shelter, housing and restorative programs, learning and career help, and so much more. Each city has customized programs to specifically meet the needs of their community.
Lend a Hand Foundation
Lend A Hand Foundation began in 1997. They work closely with the Oakland Unified School District, San Leandro, and other surrounding cities in Alameda County to support underserved students and others in need. Their foundation provides educational tools, food, clothing, and other essentials throughout the year to help families thrive.
Mercy Brown Bag Program
In 1982, residents at the Mercy Retirement & Care Center saw seniors in their neighborhood going hungry and launched the Brown Bag Program to distribute bags of groceries to hungry seniors in Oakland, CA. Today, 500+ volunteers make sure other seniors can remain self-sufficient and independent. Along with nutritious food, the Mercy Brown Bag Program provides a place for seniors to contribute to their community, stay physically active and socialize.
