SAN RAMON, CA, December 21, 2012 (Press-News.org) On Saturday, December 15, 2012, Sunflower Systems Solutions Team members, spouses, and friends took time out of their busy holiday schedule to give back to the community. Our volunteers gathered to provide food, service and entertainment at Community Lodgings' annual Christmas Party. Community Lodgings (CLI), located in Alexandria, opens "doors of opportunity" for homeless and disadvantaged families with affordable housing, training, and support.
"All of us here at Community Lodgings are extremely grateful to Sunflower Systems and your entire staff for providing the food and donating your time to make our annual family Christmas party an amazing success! Most of the families we serve would never have the opportunity to enjoy such a remarkably delicious meal. It is an extra special treat that you bring additional food and 'to go' boxes so the families can each take food home to enjoy later. What a great idea! We sincerely appreciate you adding such a bright spot in the lives of the people we serve. Many, many thanks", Bonnie Baxley, Executive Director, Community Lodgings.
