Muna-Maqubela Birthday Fundraiser

With so much turmoil happening right now, we wanted to use our birthdays as a way to help the most vulnerable in our community.

The Alameda County Community Food Bank provides assistance to 49,000 people each week, including low-income adults, children, and the elderly. They also educate the community about the causes of hunger and poverty, advocate for policies to address the root causes of poverty, and operate an emergency food referral hotline.

As a pediatrician, it breaks my heart whenever I see a food insecure child in clinic. Food provides children with the energy to focus and bring their best selves to their school and communities. As parents, we cannot imagine how a parent or caregiver must feel when they cannot put food on the table for their families. 

We know this is a challenging time for everyone, but if anyone has extra financial resources to give, it would mean so much to us if you could help us band together to support a local organization that provides such a critical service to our community.

We love you all. We feel so blessed that each and everyone of you are part of our lives. Let's spread some love!
