The Los Altos Town Crier Holiday Fund is kicking off its 25th year supporting local organizations that directly serve those with the most pressing needs in the community.
Since its inception, the Holiday Fund has raised more than $3 million. This year, the fund aims to raise $250,000 to donate to 13 nonprofit organizations.
Holiday Fund recipients include: Child Advocates of Silicon Valley; Community Services Agency’s Food & Nutrition Center; the Community School of Music and Arts’ Artistic Intelligence program; the Day Worker Center of Mountain View; Help One Child; Hope’s Corner; Hidden Villa Summer Camps; the MERIT program at the Krause Center for Innovation; Los Altos Youth Theatre; Music for Minors; Mentor Tutor Connection; MVLA Scholars; and the Veterans Resource Center at Foothill College.
Holiday Fund contributions are tax deductible and processed through a donor-advised fund at the Los Altos Mountain View Community Foundation. The foundation provides letters acknowledging donor contributions.
The Town Crier will present checks to the 13 organizations in early 2025.
The paper will profile each organization in a series of articles published throughout the holiday season. We profile two of our recipients, Hope’s Corner and Music For Minors, beginning with this issue. Read their profiles on page 9.
