                      EVENTS CALENDAR

The year is easing into its soft-focus, cocoa-scented finale. As we settle into the holiday season, it’s also the time when generosity seems to glow a little brighter. There are two ways our SRWC community can give back this year.

One Life "Food is Medicine" Virtual Food & Wellness Drive

A team of SRWC employees with Medical Center Development has partnered with One Life Counseling Center to support a Virtual Food & Wellness Drive benefiting local families facing rising costs. One Life’s “Monday Market” provides weekly food assistance and essential items to working parents, seniors on fixed incomes, and immigrant families.

When: December 8 - 19

What you can do: Shop their Amazon Wish List OR Donate online

Questions? Email Patrick Letellier at letpat25@stanford.edu

Winter Wishes for Local Kids

We’re proud to continue supporting families at Taft Community School in Redwood City this holiday season by helping to bring children’s wish lists to life. You can make a meaningful impact by purchasing items from a child’s personalized list or by contributing warm blankets and small gift cards.

When: Please deliver new, labeled, unwrapped gifts by Monday, December 15 at 10:00 a.m.

What you can do: Sponsor a wish list

Automated Shades

To ensure the shades function properly, please avoid attaching clips, post-its, or any other items to them, and do not place plants or other objects on the windowsill. If you notice anything obstructing the shades, kindly remove it so they can operate smoothly.

Barron Garage will maintain regular hours throughout winter closure. It will remain open from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for anyone commuting to campus. After 6:00 p.m., vehicles may still exit as usual, but a valid Stanford ID is required for entry.
