Exciting News!

We are so pleased to bring back our Oasis Library Corner.  Due to the generosity of Jerome's Furniture and donations from San Diego Oasis members, we now have a home for all those books you've been wanting to donate. Please note that we are seeking books in good condition and preferably large print. Sandra, our volunteer librarian, is here on Tuesday afternoons, making this day the best for drop-offs if possible.


Can you help us purchase an item or two from the list below? As a small nonprofit, we rely on charitable donations to expand and improve our spaces and our programs. Thank you for considering support.
