Residents can help needy families this holiday season by participating in the City of Saratoga food and toy drive. The City will have food donation barrels will be placed at Saratoga City Hall between November 16, 2009 to December 21, 2009 in several locations, including:
- TheJoan Pisani Community Center
- Civic Theater
- Senior Center
- City Manager's Office lobby

Saratoga City Hall is located at 13777 Fruitvale Avenue in Saratoga.
All food will be collected by the Second Harvest Food Bank, which helps to provide food to more than 207,000 people in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties every month. Last year, the City collected 370 pounds of food and hopes to collect twice as much this year.
The City will also be collecting toys for Sacred Heart Community Service in San Jose. The City will be accepting toys until December 17. The toys will then be given to needy families on December 20, 2009. Toys can be dropped off at the City Manager’s Office.
