Mastick's Fundraising Campaign

The Mastick Senior Center Advisory Board sponsors fundraising activities which assist in the maintenance and operation of the Center. Fundraising activities are a lot of fun and a great place to volunteer your time . . . make new friends while supporting the Mastick Senior Center!

Mastick Senior Center Supporters

Many members elect to make monetary donations or to leave charitable gifts for the Center. Donors are recognized each month in our newsletter, the Mastick Bee.

2% Utility User's Tax Exemption

Alameda residents 62 years of age, or low income, are eligible for a 2% exemption on the Utility User's Tax (UUT) on the following services: electrical, gas, and cable.

Residents have the option of directly benefiting from the 2% reduction, or designating the cost savings as a restricted gift to be used only for funding Mastick Senior Center programs.

In 2008 $2,606 was generated for Mastick programs as a result of residents designating their cost savings to us!

UUT Exemption forms are available in Mastick's office.

BART Tiny Tickets Program

In April 2007, we began participating in the BART Tiny Ticket Program, in conjunction with the East Bay Community Foundation. Our center will gladly accept BART tickets (e.g., Green, Blue and Red) with small monetary balances in the Mastick Office.

Tickets will be sent bi-annually to BART for reimbursement. Revenue generated from the "tiny Tickets" will be used for Mastick programs.

Please spread the word!

Memorial Board

The Memorial Board located in the Mastick Social Hall honors the memory of those dear to our heart. A beautiful bronze plaque bearing the name of the deceased love one can be added to the Memorial Board with a donation of $100.
