We were recognized for working effectively and efficiently with our nonprofit partners to help improve lives in our community through our 16 programs. For example, we provide low income students  with food and clothing through our Common Threads and Sunshine Boxes programs. We also address community needs by providing kits of supplies to support at-risk babies, foster youth, sexual assault survivors and others. These programs help us to reach 10,000 people in need in Contra Costa County in 2020-21.

Assistance League of Diablo Valley is grateful to the Make It Better Foundation for its vote of confidence in us! We are appreciative of the support that is helping us improve our organization and provide more and better services to our community.
