Where Compassion Meets Hope. 🤝💙

The San Jose City District Jail, under the leadership of JCINSP RANDY A DUPILAS, Acting District Jail Warden, extends its heartfelt gratitude to the Narra Chapter No. 42, Order of DEMOLAY for their generous Feeding Program and Donation Drive for the Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDL).

Beyond the shared meal of hot sopas, the sweet bread shared with every PDL, the hygiene kits, and the basketballs that will foster recreation, teamwork, and positive engagement, your generosity offered something far more enduring, a reminder that hope can flourish, compassion can transcend every wall, and every individual deserves the opportunity to rediscover dignity, purpose, and the promise of a second chance.

Your selfless act reflects the profound truth that development is strengthened not only by programs and policies, but also by communities that choose to care, uplift, and believe in the capacity of every person to change. Happy 41st Chapter Anniversary!
