Senator Dave Cortese speaks
PRESSER - Senator Dave Cortese speaks during the Operation Gobble announcement last week.

San Jose Water donated Safeway gift cards to families in need this year as part of its annual Operation Gobble program.

The California Water Association established Operation Gobble with the purpose of partnering water utilities with elected officials and non-profit organizations across the state to make donations during Thanksgiving. 

“We’re honored to join our local elected officials and community partners through the CWA’s Operation Gobble, supporting families in need this holiday season,” said Tanya Moniz-Witten, president of SJW. “At San Jose Water, our commitment to helping our community extends year-round—we’re dedicated to improving the quality of life in the communities we serve.”

Senator Dave Cortese, Assemblymember Alex Lee, Assemblymember Gail Pellerin, Assemblymember Marc Berman, Assemblymember Patrick Ahrens, representatives for Senator Josh Becker (Miles Goodman and Alex Kobayashi) and a representative for Senator Aisha Wahab (Astrid Scott), were among those who participated in an announcement about the initiative, Nov. 19.
