 COMMUNITY WISH LIST OF SAN MATEO COUNTY
The idea behind the Community Wish List is simple. Instead of asking for checks, 
local nonprofit organizations list items they would like donated in order to serve
the community better. People find pleasure in giving gifts to others, particularly
things that might otherwise go into landfill.

 Donors can claim a tax deduction on their taxes for contributions.
