Hello dear community, as many of you have already heard, The Commons is closing temporarily at the 226 E. Lodi Ave location due to the owner's need to repair and remodel.

As a project from Partners for International Cooperation, we here at PIC are so incredibly grateful for our volunteers and community support to have served over 1,000 people during COVID-19 with no-contact essentials delivery boxes. We've been able to use this space for fundraisers, community events, free community classes, and as a pickup/dropoff location for food, clothing, and household items.

PIC is looking for a new space for The Commons, but will also continue our work in other service areas.

Thank you, and enjoy our garage sale this weekend!

We still workin’! Huge shoutout to all the amazing people making this possible — we’ve helped 600 people across the 209 with food and essentials with an incredibly small, all with volunteers of less than 15 people.

But we aren’t done yet. Our community still needs us. Send us a DM if you can donate food, supplies, money, or your time. Send us a DM if you need some essentials and we’ll get you on our list.

We’re in this together, and we’ll get through it together. ❤️

Urgent Requests:

We know there are so many needs right now it can be overwhelming. Here at the Commons and Partners for International Cooperation we’re working hard to be as self sufficient as possible, but, for example, the emergency grant fund for SJ county only granted us $500 (out of the $2000 requested) for purchasing food, baby supplies, and paper essentials for our no-contact box deliveries. No fault of theirs, they just had so, so many requests that no organization received full grant.

We’ve assisted just under 400 people to date across SJ county, with over a hundred additional requests and more coming in every day we are working to fill.

So, we need your help. Please check your pantries, your garages, storage units etc, and if you have any extra food items, essentials, or funds to spare send us a direct message and we will pick up from your doorstep.

If you wish to volunteer with deliveries, you can also DM us. The quickest way to donate is either online gift cards to grocery stores, which you can send to [email protected], or by donating directly to our website partnersintlcoop.org.

Stay safe, stay inside, and stay connected. We are all so grateful to be a part of this awesome community and HUGE shoutout to our amazing volunteers! ❤️

Great news! Thank you to St. John’s Episcopal Church and Directions Medical Clinic, we have received additional diapers in a variety of sizes.

Please only send us a direct message, as we cannot respond to all comments and only have one phone, with this info:

❤️Name
❤️Address for delivery
❤️Number of kids and their sizes
❤️If you’d like food too or just diapers
❤️Total number of people in household

To all waiting for responses and deliveries, we thank you for your patience! We can only response when we get to your message in the queue. We currently have about 40 requests that were working on with a small group of dedicated volunteers.

We are here for you and our community during this time and please do not hesitate to reach out, just note we respond in order of receipt.

Stay safe, stay inside if you can, and stay strong!

We’ve ordered additional deliveries from Good360 for diapers, baby wipes, and sets of shampoo/conditioner packets.

We will post as soon as they arrive! Thank you all for your patience.

We still have non-perishable foods available for box deliveries. Through Partners for International Cooperation we’ve applied to SJ County’s emergency fund and will continue to seek out additional resources to serve our community.

We are a dedicated team of volunteers here for each other and you 💕
