Support Local Homeless Shelters: Participate in Free FESCO Shuffle
Do you want to do something to help our community fight homelessness? You can support your local FESCO homeless shelters by participating in the free FESCO Shuffle!
The Shuffle is a fun, free, and family-oriented community event where the proceeds benefit FESCO families. The community is invited to sponsor the event, and walk or run that day. Team Captains lead the fundraiser by rallying supporters to join their teams, pledge donations, and walk for their team. Businesses can also get involved in the event by sponsoring The FESCO Shuffle.
Join us: May 6th 2023 at Moreau Catholic High School, Hayward CA 94544 from 9am to - 12pm
The walk is a great way to get out and enjoy a family-oriented day while also knowing you are supporting the unhoused population in our area. You are invited to walk the track, or just relax and enjoy the entertaining events and activities.
All participants will enjoy a fun-filled day for all ages with music provided by a popular Bay Area band, a Kids-Zone with fun games and prizes, food, raffles, interesting vendors, and much more!
Interested community members can support FESCO and the FESCO Shuffle in several ways. By going to the Shuffle site: fescoshuffle.org, they can form or join a team, sponsor someone participating in the Shuffle, donate to the Shuffle, make a direct financial contribution to FESCO, or sign up for the 5K Run.
FESCO is also seeking commercial sponsors to underwrite costs of the Shuffle. The sponsors will receive a number of benefits including having their names printed on the t-shirts given out to all Shuffle participants. Funding from sponsors and the money pledged to the walkers translates to impacting hundreds of homeless children and their parents each year.
Go to fescoshuffle.org to join a team, donate, or sign up for the 5K
5K Registration Starts at 7:00 am
About the Beneficiary: In addition to serving single mothers with children, FESCO is the only shelter in Hayward that welcomes single fathers, two-parent families with children, and teenage males as part of a family group. FESCO has made a difference every day since our start in 1986. In our founding documents, we committed to keeping families together during their period of homelessness. Join us on May 6th 2023 at Moreau Catholic High School, Hayward CA 94544 from 7am to 8:30am.
In addition to emergency shelter services, we provide opportunities for families to stabilize the lives of their children while they seek permanent housing. FESCO helps provide financial planning, job skills and employment recommendations, and supports emotional wellness for both children and parents. FESCO also provides resources to families to prevent homelessness and continue to provide alumni families with support services so that they can continue to thrive.
