Hullo! It's almost Rowan's birthday and she'd love to have you join her annual virtual food drive for The Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, an organization that collects food from retailers and farmers and distributes it to more than 650 food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters.
Rowan's turning 6 on November 4th and is a happy, lucky kid. In LA County 1 in 6 children live below the poverty line. Last year, Rowan's food bank fund raiser collected more than $500 - helping to distribute over 2000 meals! Please take a moment to click the link and contribute a few bucks to this year's effort.

Join Rowan in helping hungry children, families and seniors in our community by filling up your shopping cart!
For 42 years, the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank has been mobilizing resources to fight hunger in our community. They distributed 59 million pounds of nutritious food in 2014 – the equivalent of 48 million meals – to 280,500 clients each month in L.A. County.
One in six people in Los Angeles County experiences food insecurity. Check out the short and inspiring video below to see the story of one family.
Every $1 donated allows the Food Bank to distribute the equivalent of four meals through their agency network or Food Bank programs. Plus, our contributions save the Food Bank time and resources incurred through traditional Food Drives.
