Turlock’s children need a miracle this holiday season.
For 15 years, a non-profit alliance of Turlock-based organizations called Turlock Together has helped Santa fill the space below Christmas trees in low-income Turlock residents’ homes.
The need is greater than ever before and time is ticking. About 6,000 new toys are needed this year. Thus far, Turlock Together only has 500. The alliance hopes to receive the rest within 21 calendar days, when the gifts will be collected and sorted for distribution.

The California State University Board of Trustees today approved a two-step tuition increase needed to sustain enrollment, classes and services for current students. The Trustees approved a mid-year increase of five percent – or $105 - for 2010-11 that will go into effect Jan. 1, 2011 for the winter/spring terms. In addition, the Trustees adopted a 10 percent - or $444 - annual increase for the 2011-12 academic year that would become effective for fall 2011.
The California State University Board of Trustees today adopted a budget for 2011-12 calling for an increase of approximately $379 million in state general fund support from the governor and the Legislature. Included in the budget proposal is a request for the state to provide $121.5 million to "buy out" a planned 2011-12 tuition increase. These "buy-out" funds would make it possible for the CSU to rescind the tuition increase.
