There are many opportunities throughout the year for students to continue to practice the Lasallian values of service to others, especially the poor.
In Contra Costa county where the median income level is $74, 241, 5.5 percent of families live below the federal poverty level. These families often turn to local agencies for help during difficult times.
Some of the agencies listed here benefit from the generosity of De La Salle students, families and friends through events like the Spartan Charity Challenge and the Christmas toy drive. If you would like to help during the year, or find out more about these organizations, the contact information is provided below:
