On Saturday, April 26, the Junior League of Oakland-East Bay hosted another unforgettable Touch a Truck 2025 event—and what a day it was!

We welcomed more than 800 attendees to Balestrieri Family Farm for an afternoon filled with family fun, hands-on learning, and community connection. Thanks to the generosity of our guests, sponsors, and volunteers, we raised over $20,000 to support our Community Enrichment Fund, which provides grants to local nonprofits serving women and children throughout Alameda and Contra Costa counties.

Touch a Truck 2025 Event Highlights

• ? 10 incredible vehicles for kids (and grown-ups!) to explore

• ☀️ Sunshine and smiles, despite a week of looming rain

• ? 100+ bouncy house jumps (yes, we counted!)

• ? 50+ dedicated volunteers

• ?️ Raffle prizes from amazing local businesses

• ? Delicious eats from food trucks and vendors

Touch a Truck continues to be one of the East Bay’s favorite family-friendly fundraising events, bringing together community members, first responders, and local organizations for a day that’s both impactful and fun.
