Join me in helping hungry children, families and seniors in our community by filling up your shopping cart!
I usually have a traditional food drive during the year where I ask my friends and family to donate canned goods and nonperishable items. I'm switching it up this time and doing a virtual food drive for the summer. Currently, 1 in 7 people in Los Angeles County experiences food insecurity. During the summer, children and elderly are most vulnerable.
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. My goal is to reach $500 by Sept. 30, 2016. Please do not feel obligated to contribute. If you can donate, fantastic! If you cannot, no worries at all. Donations are tax deductible. Thanks!
Big Hugs,
Hiroko
