Food & Toy Drive Hosted by Local Business Networking Group

Bring unwrapped toys; Bring nonperishable food; Wednesday, December 09; Local Business Networking Group; Dish Restaurant

The Crescenta Valley Chapter of Business Network International (BNI) is holding its annual Food and Toy Drive on Wednesday, December 09 at Dish Restaurant at 7am. Dish Restaurant is located at 734 Foothill, La Canada. Sheriff’s Deputy Jesse Alcala from the La Crescenta Station will be their featured speaker for this meeting. This our favorite meeting of the year. And we are the only chapter in the San Fernando Valley BNI District to hold a Food and Toy Drive. We invite the other chapters and the general public to come and participate. You can come and have breakfast with a great group of local business people or just come and drop off your nonperishable food and unwrapped toys. There is a $15 venue fee if you wish to join them for breakfast. This is the same fee that each member has already paid.

We -- the CV-BNI chapter members -- have been holding our Christmas Food and Toy Drive for more than 15 years. Jacque Foreman – one of the two 20+ -year members of this chapter – has lost track of the number of years she has been the point person on this project. Come and meet a great group of local business people and help make this their best Food and Toy Drive ever. For more information, call Foreman at 626-794-9620.
