Supply Donation
Given the increased demand for and decreased supply of critical cleaning and protective supplies, some essential non-profit organizations and employers are struggling to access the resources they need to serve our community. At this time, Homeless Service Providers are worried about running out of important supplies including soap, hand sanitizer, bleach, clorox wipes, empty spray bottles, personal protective gear, gloves, masks, NEW unused towels, and NEW unused socks. Donations are being accepted at United Way of San Joaquin County from M-F 10am – 2pm.

Resources from Visit Stockton
DineStockton.com
On March 16, Visit Stockton launched Dine Stockton in order to support local restaurant employees and their families. The intention was to keep those individuals on the job and be a resource for the community as they searched for delivery and take-out options across the city. The information is continually collected and updated (daily) and features a growing number of restaurants, some of which are offering curb-side pick-up during these difficult times. Marketing dollars are being put behind this promotion in order to send traffic to these restaurants. Participation is open to all restaurants within Stockton free of charge.
