The Butter Paddle: A Legacy of Giving

For nearly 60 years, The Butter Paddle has been a cherished part of the South Bay community. What began as a small kitchen store to support at-risk children and families has grown into a beloved destination for unique, handpicked gifts—all while continuing our mission of giving back.

As we celebrate 15 wonderful years in Los Gatos and nearly a century as an auxiliary, we’re excited to refresh our store’s look and expand our community outreach programs to better serve the children and families of Pacific Clinics.

We invite you to be a part of this meaningful transformation! Your donation to EMQ Auxiliary—no matter the size—will help us continue making a difference. Plus, all contributions are tax-deductible.

Thank you for your support in keeping The Butter Paddle a place where shopping meets purpose!

You will receive a letter of appreciation as a donation receipt.
