Please consider donating to Hope Solutions. Hope Solutions is a charity that St. Perpetua tithes for. It was originally called Contra Costa Interfaith Housing. It was started/founded by multiple faith communities in Contra Costa County to provide supportive housing for families and individuals. They purchased an apartment building in Pleasant Hill and remodeled it and moved in families and provided therapy, job counseling, after school help for the kids and so much more. Their model is so successful that they now provide housing and support services at multiple complexes in Contra Costa County. Hope Solutions is extra special because so many groups in Lafayette were instrumental in its creation and continue to support it. 

 

Hope Solutions’ MHSA and ACCESS program have requested new bedding as a holiday gift. Help Hope Solutions deliver “Bed in a Bag” including comforters and sheets to the residents in the program. Bed in a Bag should be gender neutral and include a comforter, shams, and sheet set.

– Peter Dewey, Bayview Painting

“I couldn’t have asked for a better resource than the Chamber, as I was establishing my medical practice in Lafayette. AJ, Holly, and Sara were so responsive to my questions and gave me many ideas on networking in the community. They host several events that foster community building. I honestly cannot imagine a more robust, active, and friendly chamber as this. I’m a member for life!”
– Cheruba Prabakar, Lamorinda Gynecology & Surgery

“WE LOVE THE CHAMBER! Batch and Brine has been a member of the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce for almost six years. We value and appreciate the incredible amount of work this organization produces for our community through many events and support for each business. The networking and education of information that’s spilled out weekly for the business community is impressive. They are a helping hand in so many ways for our business community and beyond. We couldn’t be part of this community without being part of the chamber. Lafayette Chamber is one of the best organizations we’ve worked with, so don’t think twice about it, join the Chamber!” – Rolla Ghaben, Batch & Brine

“The Chamber was instrumental in helping us open 14 years ago. The staff went out of their way to help us make connections and ensure we were successful. We would not be where we are today without the Chamber!”
