I had the pleasure to visit individuals and a company this past week in Fremont. Evolve Manufacturing Technologies has partnered up with Ohlone College and started the Earn and Learn (ELF) Pilot Program. This program is for individuals that got lay-offed from their jobs due to COVID-19. These individuals worked and went to school to earn their certificate in Manufacturing, and graduation was last week. Evolve is also focusing on making ventilators and COVID-19 test kits during this pandemic.

When the pandemic hit a year ago, Irfan’s organization didn’t stop. Pantry members started making home deliveries, providing about 100,000 pounds of food last year to seniors, military veterans, and those who were suddenly unemployed.
“It’s all about helping each other out during these difficult times,” he said
