As COVID-19 cases surge across California, Webcorians partnered with Rebuilding Together Oakland | Eastbay to help some of the most vulnerable members of our community. Department Support Manager Diane Oliver, Sr. Executive Assistant Darlene O’Donnell, and Executive Assistant Jackie Myron helped deliver PPE goodie-bags filled with masks and hand sanitizers (generously donated by the Common Humanity Collective) to low-income seniors in Oakland.

Having worked on nearly 25 projects for Rebuilding Together during her 30-year tenure at Webcor, Darlene jumped at the opportunity to help out.

“My favorite part of the day was seeing the seniors' curious gazes turn into bright smiles and waves as they opened their doors to find the surprise packages,” she said.

Throughout the day, the team travelled by foot and car to make the deliveries around the neighborhood.

“I was on a mission to deliver all the PPE supplies and get them all done before my shift ended,” said Jackie. “It gave me a great sense of accomplishment and satisfaction knowing these supplies would help keep the seniors safe!”

Together, the team successfully delivered over 200 bags throughout the course of the day!
