Project Homekey Follow-Up & Questions
Since learning about the Project Homekey Proposal in early November, the Redwood Shores Community Association has offered our community information, and asked many questions of San Mateo County leaders, about the plans affecting our community.
Following is an article written for the December PILOT, along with our list of questions, as of yet unanswered. We will continue to update the community as the county shares information and provides clarity.
Scouting for Food: November 21st, 2020 9am – 12pm
The Boy Scouts of America are here to help and will be gathering donations throughout Redwood Shores on Saturday, November 21, from 9am to 12pm.
For your safety and convenience, we will be providing contactless pickup and drop off options for your donations. Simply leave your non-perishable food donations in bags in a clearly visible location outside your house by 9am on Saturday, November 21 or drop off by 12pm to the Scouts at Marlin Park.
We accept any unexpired non-perishable food items such as canned goods, pasta and rice. We cannot accept expired food, baked goods, refrigerated items or items in damaged packages.
Last year, we collected and donated almost one ton of non-perishable food items to local food banks. This year, we need your help to do even better for our Redwood Shores community!

Redwood Shores Community Association (RSCA) recognizes how important it is to celebrate each other and the uniqueness of our community. In the spirit of bringing joy, awareness and happiness to our community, RSCA invites residents to upload details and photos of their family traditions, celebrations, festivities and decor, including entries in the Light Up The Shores Contest:

Preventing Mail Theft in RWS
In recent weeks, Redwood Shores has seen a rise in mail theft in our neighborhood. Other than stimulus checks and tax refunds, thieves are typically looking for mail with any personally identifiable information such as names, date of birth, financial statements, account numbers, and social security numbers.
