The concert helps us raise money to serve those in need of food in our downtown Oakland community! While the Alameda County Community Food Bank provides some food for free, federal budget cuts make it necessary for our church to purchase additional food at a cost of $5,500 a year. We also provide hygiene products for our un-housed neighbors at a cost of $2,500 a year. We truly run on a shoestring budget with countless hours of volunteer service!
Terrific Performances!
Six performers including Oakland Interfaith Community Choir, Piedmont East Bay Children’s Choir and Destiny Muhammad Trio

Our programs provide volunteer opportunities for over 600 people a year – families with young children, college students, local businesses, service clubs, and local High School students (who enthusiastically make up the majority of our volunteers). See also our Food Programs page.
