Episode Details

San Jose churches are transforming a Christmas gift drive into a year-round mission to uplift farmworker families, raising $14,000 at a recent fundraiser and channeling funds into essentials like school supplies, rent aid, and computer training. Multiple parishes unite in this effort, amplifying impact through shared resources and community stories that highlight farmworkers’ vital contributions. Youth are stepping up too, launching school-based initiatives to spread awareness. Ministry members have toured farms to witness pesticide exposure near homes and schools, fueling advocacy for safer agricultural policies. At its heart, this movement calls for deeper respect and connection—linking faith with action to honor the unsung labor that feeds our communities.
