Did you know that 1,200 people go to bed hungry in Glendale every night? And did you know that 200 of them are children?
The Salvation Army Food Pantry which provides food for many of the under privilege locally is running out of food.
The need for food has almost tripled in the past two years. To help combat that need, the St. Bede School sixth grade class, Boy Scout Troop 507 and the Crescenta-Canada Rotary Club are teaming up for a food drive dubbed “Love and Fishes."
