DIAMOND BAR, CA — Community members can help local families and shelter animals this holiday season by donating nonperishable food and pet supplies through Monday, Dec. 7 in two donation drives organized by members of the city's DB4Youth program, the city announced on Friday.
The City of Diamond Bar encouraged residents to contribute items to help support a local food pantry and the Inland Valley Humane Society.
Donation boxes, decorated by DB4Youth members, include lists of requested items and are available at three locations:
Food donations will be delivered to a local food pantry, while pet supplies will benefit the Inland Valley Humane Society, the city said.
The projects are part of DB4Youth, a free leadership program for Diamond Bar students in sixth through 12th grades.
