Catholic Charities and the Farmworker Caravan are hoping to provide toys to children of farmworkers in Santa Clara County.
The charities are also going to the farmworker camp on Cinco de Mayo with food baskets and family aid, including health and social services. The groups said it is the least they can do for the essential workers who took care of everyone during the pandemic.
"These are farm workers that take care of not just us during the pandemic, but every day of the year," Tenes said."Every time you sit down to eat, you need to thank a farm workers for that.""These are children that are not necessarily getting to play all summer," Tenes said."They're working in the fields. So when they can have a moment when they're not working, we want to just give them something.
