In-Kind Donations

You can support our programs by donating new and unused items from our wishlist. We work with kids in many different capacities and our programs are in constant need of many different items, equipment, and tools. Click Here for a list of items from our Programs’ Wish List.

Help Stock Our Student Pantry

Many of our students are still hungry after the school day and that the standard snacks provided by the District aren’t always enough. In response, Oakland Leaf is launching a Student Snack Pantry, stocked with healthy, non-perishable snacks for our youth.

We welcome donations of nutritious, non-perishable snacks (like shelf-safe milks; small meals like tuna & crackers, mac & cheese; and snacks like fruit cups, beef sticks, protein bars, etc.). Here is a link to our Snack Pantry Amazon Wishlist. While in-kind donations are appreciated, monetary gifts remain the most impactful way to support Oakland Leaf.

Building a more loving, just, and vibrant Oakland.
