Friends and neighbors,

After more than 6 years of non-stop deliveries, first daily for over 2 years, then weekly, our food programs connected to COVID will close, a year from now, in May 2026!

We are making arrangements for Berkeley Food Network, our long-term partner and a food-focus non-profit, to take over deliveries for the program!

Wishing all the best - Michel and all your friends at [HelpBerkeley.org](http://HelpBerkeley.org)
