FEED SOCAL
 

ABC7, Vons, Southern California regional food banks and ESPN LA 710 are partnering to help Feed SoCal throughout the month of July. During difficult economic times, one out of every six people in Southern California experiences hunger, and especially during the summer, children, veterans, and the elderly hurt the most. Food banks need your help.

How You Can Help

  1. Go to your local Vons or Vons Pavilions and purchase a pre-filled $5 bag, or purchase non-perishable food items, and leave them in the Feed SoCal box.

  2. Donate on-line to your food bank of choice:

  3. Mail your contribution to:
    Feed SoCal
    P.O. Box 5967
    Glendale, CA 91221
    Checks can be made out to: Los Angeles Regional Food Bank
    Funds will divided up among the four food banks, unless designated on the memo line to a specific county.

  4. Come out to one of our four "Stuff-a-Truck" events and bring non-perishable food items or cash and help Team Alysha or Team Garth "Stuff-a-Truck" for Feed SoCal.
