I Wish There Was A PAW TEAM in San Jose Ca

PAW Team is a volunteer-based organization. Services are provided by volunteer veterinarians, vet techs, and others from the Portland community interested in helping people on the streets and their companion/service animals.



In our early years, PAW Team typically saw from 20-40 pets at each quarterly clinic. Each year that number increased bit by bit, until we were caring for an average of 70 animals at each quarterly clinic in 2009, with a few exceptionally heavy clinics where we treated up to 100 pets. When we began our monthly clinics in 2010, we expected to maintain or even decrease our average of 70 or so pets per clinic, since we would be increasing the number of clinics in each year. However, at our monthly clinics in 2010, we treated an average of 142 pets, with no signs of slowing down. We now have to turn away clients due to lack of funds. There is clearly a tremendous need for these services in our community.

Senior citizens face many problems, including illness and diminished capacity for independence and self-care, economic problems, difficulties in obtaining affordable quality housing, and often loneliness and isolation. Those who are immigrants often have these problems, compounded by language and cultural barriers.

This sector of our community receives the Center's primary focus and is provided with a wide range of services through our Senior Programs. A complete up-to-date bank of information relevant to their needs is maintained, and cooperative relationships have been established with other centers and agencies that serve seniors. In this way, this special group in our community has access to all resources that will improve their quality of life.

Escort Program

This program provides scheduling, transportation, translation and interpretation, as well as advocacy for the seniors by trained professionals and volunteers. In this manner, seniors can avail themselves of those resources vital to their well-being. Year in and year out, about 4,000 escort trips are administered covering more than 20,000 miles. Most trips are used to assist seniors to utilize the services of health professionals and agencies that they otherwise would be unable to access.

Clube 60

This is the social club sponsored by the Center that serves as the vehicle for a multitude of recreational and social activities. Its membership is nearly 500 seniors who plan and participate in activities such as sightseeing trips, birthday parties, luncheons, dances, arts and crafts, as well as a variety of other activities and projects carried out both in the Center and on outings.

In their desire to be productive and help support their Center, the members participate actively in fundraising drives for the organization. They also devote their energies to planning and evaluating the various programs and services that the Center provides.

Counseling

For those with serious problems in the areas of mental health, family or individual functioning, counseling services are provided by professional clinical social workers having the special cultural and language expertise to facilitate problem solving.

Nutrition Program

Begun in 1989 with a grant from Santa Clara County, the Nutrition Program provides as many as 110 seniors with a delicious hot lunch and an afternoon of camaraderie five times each week. This program fulfills one of POSSO's long-range goals set many years ago, and is one of the most-enjoyed by the seniors.

The need for this program surpasses POSSO's government subsidy. POSSO funds the additional meals through fundraising rather than restricting the number of seniors who can partake in this program.

Food Distribution

In addition to the Second Harvest Food Bank Brown Bag Program, federal surplus food commodities are also distributed to those low- income seniors who apply and qualify for this benefit.

Tax Assistance

Through the efforts of our staff and volunteers, thousands of dollars were returned to seniors in Homeowner's and Renter's Assistance and Renter's Credit Programs offered by the State of California. Furthermore, financial assistance was provided to seniors through our ensuring their participation in the state's HEAP utility assistance program and other available subsidies.

Martha’s Kitchen Hours of Operation:

• Tuesday and Wednesday: Meal Service: 4:00pp - 5:00pm

Nestled between downtown San Jose and the quaint town of Willow Glen lies a “little soup kitchen” that will turn 30 in 2011. Founder Louise Benson began this work out of her garage when she prepared and gave away peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the poor. Then in 1981, she and her friends started Martha’s Kitchen on the premises of the Sacred Heart Church serving hot meals. The kitchen was named after a biblical figure, Martha, who unfailingly offered hot meals to Jesus and his band of followers on their frequent journeys through the community of Bethany.

Today, this “little soup kitchen” is not so little anymore.  It still gives out hot meals onsite with its mission to “feed the hungry with dignity, no questions asked, no judgment made.”  And its meals are hot and complete with soup, salad, roll, starch, a main dish, fruit and dessert.  It also sends out 160,000 hot and cold meals annually to a dozen other non-profit organizations in Santa Clara county as far south as Gilroy, and even to the dusty agricultural town of Dos Palos in Merced county to support the hungry. Before the end of 2010 it will serve its 2,000,000th meal since it has grown to an annual production of 200,000 meals. The “little soup kitchen that could” has proven it certainly could run an efficient kitchen with a lean staff of 6 employees which includes the Executive Director/Development Director, Operations Manager, two cooks and two kitchen help.  Edita Cruz, Executive Directors forecasts that Martha’s Kitchen will prepare its next 1,000,000 meals in as little as five years.

OUR MISSION

TO PROVIDE SHELTER AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES TO HOMELESS FAMILIES IN SANTA CLARA COUNTY, TO EMPOWER THEM TO MOVE FROM HOMELESSNESS TO SELF-SUFFICIENCY IN OUR COMMUNITY

---

QUICK FACTS

In Santa Clara County, an estimated 20,000 people experience homelessness each year.  Of these people, at least 25 percent are under the age of 18.

Families with children represent the fastest growing segment of the homeless population, constituting approximately 40% of people who become homeless. 

Over 70 percent of the residents at the Shelter are children and most are under the age of ten.

One-fourth of all homeless people work, but their wages are too low for them to afford permanent housing.

Family Supportive Housing is the only shelter in Santa Clara County that exclusively services families – intact families and single parents with children.
