As we journey through the holiday season, many of us will think of cheer, comfort, and spending time with our families. It’s a time of celebration, and appreciating the ones you love. But for houseless communities in the Bay Area, the holidays can be a grim time of year, where many of those living on the street won’t have homes to return to for the holidays. 

In this episode of “Bay Current," KCBS Radio’s Mallory Somera and Sydney Fishman spoke with reporter Jeffrey Schaub about his recent radio story on St. Vincent de Paul Society, a nonprofit that helps houseless and other vulnerable communities. His radio broadcast brought an outstanding number of turkey donations on Thanksgiving Day to the Marin County nonprofit, as well as other kinds of donations from the community. To make a donation to St. Vincent’s, or to volunteer, you can send an email to info@vinnies.org.
