The Friends of Oakley Christmas Basket program will be registering families on Saturday, Nov. 13 from 8:30 to 11 a.m.; Tuesday, Nov. 16 from 7 to 9 p.m.; and Wednesday, Nov. 17 from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. Registration takes place at the City of Oakley White House Community Annex, 204 Second St. Registered families will receive non-perishable food, fresh bread and vegetables, a turkey and a wrapped toy for each child up to age 18.

Families must bring either a power or water bill with the family name as proof of Oakley residence, as well as a name and address matching a California driver’s license or identification card. Friends of Oakley will consider special circumstances. One family meal will be provided per residence. Christmas Baskets will be distributed on the afternoon of Dec. 19.

Last year, the Friends of Oakley Christmas Basket program served 195 families, distributed gifts to 1,100 children and provided meals and gifts to more than 45 seniors.
