Food Giveaway Scheduled In North Hollywood This Week

NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA — In need of assistance putting food on the table for the rest of the month? A drive-through food giveaway will be held this Thursday at 6980 Vanowen Street.

Each family-sized box will have enough food for about two weeks, and includes meat, fruits and vegetables, and other staples. Everyone is eligible and welcome to attend.

Food will be given way from 9 a.m. through 12 p.m, and the line will start at 8:30 a.m. Walk-ups will not be able to receive food at this event, and all attendees must remain in their cars for pick-up.

Those who don't have access to a car are asked to go to covid19.lacounty.gov/food to find more resources across Los Angeles.

The event is sponsored by the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, L.A. County, and Supervisor Sheila Kuehl.

Patch has partnered with Feeding America to help raise awareness on behalf of the millions of Americans facing hunger. Feeding America, which supports 200 food banks across the country, estimates that in 2021, about 42 million Americans may not have enough nutritious food to eat due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. This is a Patch social good project; Feeding America receives 100 percent of donations. Find out how you can donate in your community or find a food pantry near you.
