Together, we can create the future of public safety in Alameda County.
Each newsletter we send out has a “By the Numbers” section highlighting the impact of the efforts of our team members on the health and safety of our community. As we approach the one-year anniversary of the COVID-19 shutdown, we wanted to help everyone visualize in a more concrete and personal way what that impact really means.
DSAL’s Food and Wellness Efforts
March 16, 2020 to March 12, 2021
Prepared Meals Delivered to Seniors & Families by 30 vendors:
136,843
If each food container is about 4” tall, that would make a stack over 86 times the height of the Bay Bridge!
Bags of Groceries Delivered:
150,145
That amount is equal to putting a bag of groceries in every seat of the Oakland Arena —seven times!
Pounds of food recovered & delivered:
1,233,238
We recovered enough food to equal the weight of 18 humpback whales! That is all food that would have gone to waste and instead went to our neighbors in need.
Well-being check-ins made by DSAL coaches:
39,753
Reentry Internship and Driver Hours:
5,934
That’s enough hours to drive to Times Square and back over 78 times!
