$10K Donated to Davis St. Non-Profit
Anda Chu/Daily Review
With a matching $5,000 donation challenge from Zocalo Coffeehouse, our customers showed their community spirit donating $5,275 dollars to hit our $10,000 goal donation to San Leandro’s Davis St Family Resource Center.
Thanks to all who donated and spread the word far and wide. From the $5 hearts to the $500 tree toppers, you folks pulled it over the top and made a big chuck of difference that just wouldn’t have happened without you.

Zocalo in the Daily Review!
Tim Holmes, proprietor
The Daily Review recently did a piece on Zocalo Coffeehouse reporting on the $10,000 matching fundraiser we held for The Davis Street Family Resource Center.
My favorite quote:
“My entire goal,” he said, “was to build a community space, and sell a little coffee, too.”
A Call for Healthy Foods
For some time now I’ve wanted to carry more vegan, gluten-free, etc. (if I may “etc.” whole categories of food like that), but can’t find sources…
We have some items that we have found or have come our way, but, for instance, our granola supplier, Hidden City Cafe, has dropped off the face of the earth (by phone anyway) and I have nothing to replace them.
I’d love to know if there are any warehouse/supply type stores in the east bay and what items and companies are worthy of attention.
$600 to Go in Davis St Fundraiser
With only hours to go until the end of year deadline, there’s only $615 needed to hit our $10,000 goal!
Consider a donation to day to have Zocalo match your donation. We’re open until 6pm today and open 10am to 6pm New Year’s Day.
