We’re Open in Oakley

Are you hungry for a hot, nutritious meal and you are in Oakley? Loaves & Fishes moved recently to a new Oakley site located at the Redman-Pocahontas Hall at 1403 Main Street, next to the Live Oak Church. The site is on the Tri-Delta Transit Route 383 Oakley Loop. “Come join us for a hot lunch with salad, fruit and dessert, plus a beverage, and the price is right,” says LFCC executive director Mike Baroman-Coggins. “The price is free if you are hungry in East County and would like to eat with us.” Loaves & Fishes encourages families, the elderly and anyone who is hungry to visit our Oakley dining room that opened on May 5th. The Redman Hall replaces the site that LFCC ran at St. Anthony’s Church on O’Hara Avenue.

Due to construction at St. Anthony’s, our lunch service needed a more stable location for our guests. The Redman Hall, managed by Jane Crocket, was gracious enough to open its doors and its heart to our mission.

LFCC also congratulates Jane Crockett in being named the 2009 Oakley Top Citizen of the Year. Jane will be honored at a gala event at City Hall on May 22. “It takes good people to get behind a good cause,” adds Baroman-Coggins. ”LFCC is lucky to have crossed paths with Jane and her organization.”

Join us Monday through Friday from 11:00 am to 12:45 pm for a friendly lunch served by our happy and attentive volunteers.
