A Message From County of Santa Cruz Employees
The County of Santa Cruz has a long-held tradition of participating annually in Second Harvest's Holiday Food and Fund Drive. In 2023, County staff contributed funds that resulted in 137,379 meals for families in need in our community. This year we aim to raise 154,470 meals - the equivalent of $20.24 per employee - for families in need. Every $1 donated provides 3 healthy meals for children, families, seniors, and vets in our community. With your generosity we can meet our goal and raise the funds needed to feed and uplift those who face food insecurity in our county.
