We were honored to attend CSET's Trees of Hope Christmas Tree Auction this year, joining our community in supporting vital services for Tulare County residents in need.

Seven members of our leadership team, along with one of our board members, had the privilege of participating in this cherished Visalia tradition. We're especially grateful to The Good Samaritan Center, who generously gifted us a sponsorship table for the event. Though The Good Samaritan Center has recently closed their doors, their spirit of generosity continues to make a meaningful impact in our community.

The Trees of Hope event is more than a festive celebration, it's a testament to what's possible when our community comes together. Last year alone, CSET served over 30,000 Tulare County residents, helping 343 people find living wage jobs, delivering nearly 156,000 meals to seniors, and providing utility relief to thousands of families.

At Central Valley Recovery Services, we understand the importance of collaborative community support in breaking cycles of poverty and building pathways to recovery and self sufficiency. Events like Trees of Hope remind us that we're all working together toward the same goal: empowering our neighbors and strengthening Tulare County.

Thank you to CSET and TC Hope for hosting this meaningful event.
