Today, OASES has grown into an organization of more than 400 volunteers, serving over 250 students in grades K-5 each year regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual identity, or religious belief.

Making an Impact
Each year our annual benefit is held to raise awareness of and funding for our comprehensive after
school services. We serve students and families from some of the most under-resourced neighborhoods
in Oakland. Featuring family friendly entertainment, gourmet food, and inspirational guest speakers - this
event is open to all and is our attempt to bring our community together. For many local to large
businesses, this is an opportunity to demonstrate a vested interest in the community we live and work in.
Local entrepreneurs of food, beverage, and other products or services will find our benefit event to be a
great opportunity to showcase their products through our silent auction and reception hour.
OASES and EBAYC recently merged operations and as a result, our benefit event will be bigger than
ever before and all money raised will have an even wider impact as our number of beneficiaries has
increased! Please see our press release for more information about our exciting partnership.
Our goal is to raise $80,000 through this event to secure funding for our after school, counseling, and
community organizing programs for approximately 1,500 underserved youth and families in Oakland.
Your support is a smart and sustainable investment in our community.
