ST. JOSEPH’S FAMILY CENTER
ST. PATRICK’S DAY DINNER
St. Joseph’s Family Center hosted it’s annual St. Patrick’s Dinner, a fundraiser
that supports their food assistance programs. Over 200 friends, volunteers and
donors gathered to enjoy homemade craft beer and delicious food and to learn
more about the impact they can have in alleviating hunger and food insecurity
in South County.
The mission of the Center is to alleviate hunger and homelessness in South
Santa Clara County by providing food, housing and employment-related services,
and advocating for systemic changes to improve the quality of life for the most
vulnerable people in our communities.

HISTORY OF SAN MARTIN

MAY/JUNE 2017
The San Martin Neighborhood Association was pleased
to host the community event, History of San Martin.
Author and speaker, Donna Brodsky (below left) took
us back in time with stories of how San Martin was
formed. She shared historical information including
who the settlers were, and why they decided to stay.
Some local “Old-Timers” told stories that had the
crowd in stiches. We proudly introduced the new
San Martin Chamber of Commerce and were honored
to have Supervisor Wasserman reveal and announce
the coming of San Martin north & south bound
Highway 101 signs. It was a great turn-out of
local residents.
