The Physical Plant Operations (PPO) Building Committee sponsored the 5th Annual “Holiday Hope” Food Drive and donated 60 food baskets to some of San Diego Unified's neediest families. On Dec. 18, PPO staff volunteers delivered food baskets to Logan, Chavez, Perkins, Burbank, Emerson and Golden Hills elementary schools. This charitable effort, which began in 2004, provides needy families with a complete holiday dinner, including turkey, trimmings and pumpkin pie. Families also receive staples such as peanut butter, jelly, bread, cereal and milk to supplement food supplies during winter break when students are not in school. Throughout the year, PPO conducts fundraisers in support of the food drive. This year, the generosity of Stumps Market owner Dirk Stump helped expand the number of baskets to ten additional families.
