The Dining Room provides three basic core services:  food, clothing distribution and a health program.  In addition it has been designated as a disaster relief center in San Mateo County. The Dining Room also hosts other events and programs throughout the year such as a toy distribution during the Christmas season.

Our patrons include working and non-working low-income families, the elderly, the homeless, and newcomers to the area.  Many are working productive members of our community whose wages are insufficient to cover the high cost of living in the Bay Area, especially when supporting a family.  The meals and services provided by the Dining Room help defray these costs.

This volunteering activity provides you with the opportunity to prepare and serve food.

I will be telling fun and interesting short stories about leasing the first ever office space to Facebook and meeting with Mark Zuckerberg.

Former Rotarian Glen Rojas, David Johnson, and I were all Rotarians who had met Facebook and Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg. Glen Rojas was Menlo Park's City Manager during the process of developing the campus of Facebook. Dave Johnson was the Business Development person for the town of Menlo Park.  Glen and David plan to speak to our Rotary Club next year.
