SUNNYVALE Community Hub - DURING DROP-OFF

We will have 2 options for drop-off:

 1. Contactless Self-Unloading

  • When you arrive, pull into the area marked for self-unloading and unload the donations into our provided Speedpaks (large wheeled cardboard boxes).
  • Place toothbrushes into the bins labeled for toothbrush collection.
  • Place any monetary donations into the marked bin. Be sure your organization’s name is on the outside of the envelopes before you drop them in the box.
  • Place your completed drop-off form into the marked bin. This will help us confirm that you have dropped off.

 2. Regular Unloading


BEFORE DROP OFF

  • Be sure that all donations are loaded into the trunk or back of your vehicle and that there are no personal items in those areas.  
  • Place any leftover Drive materials (extra wish cards, etc.) in a separate envelope or bag.
  • Do not place monetary donations in with the leftover Drive Materials. Please place them in a separate, marked envelope or bag clearly labeled with your organization’s name.

DURING DROP-OFF

  • Pull into the area for unloading.
  • An FGT staff/volunteer member will approach to confirm your organization's name, appointment time, and where your donations are in your vehicle.
  • Once confirmed, FGT will proceed to work with you to unload your vehicle.
  • Once complete, FGT staff/volunteers will give you the signal that you are good to go and you may proceed to pull out of the drop-off lot.

Thank you for helping us maintain safe and efficient operations during drop-offs and thank you so much for joining us to bridge our communities with joy and kindness this Holiday season!
