 For four years, I have been following the wonderful organization, Friends & Helpers. I first heard about them on the World Famous KROQ. Their goal is to "provide support and encouragement for the women, teens and children (and sometimes men), all of whom are trying to help themselves out of a violent, hurtful situation." I couldn't imagine how meaningful this could be during the holiday season. Some families drop everything to escape a terrible environment, unable to take their personal belongings much less money to have a normal Christmas. That is why I love this organization; they are making their spirits bright. What is great about their program is that 100% of every dollar donated goes directly to someone in need! During the holidays, they have an Adopt-A-Family program and Adopt-A-Stocking. They also take donations year round. You can donate any amount and it only takes five minutes! This year, they have quite a few pick up and drop off events: December 2nd 4pm – 9pm The MUCK 1201 W Malvern Ave, Fullerton 92833 December 3rd 4pm to 8pm 11455 Magnolia Blvd North Hollywood 91601 Right next to North Hollywood skate park First driveway after 170 December 4th 4pm- 8pm Wells Fargo 10789 W Pico Blvd Los Angeles, CA December 5th 3:30pm – 7:30pm 20240 E. Cienega Ave., Covina 91724 December 6th 9am- 1pm 10 Mauchly Irvine California 92618 December 7th 9am -3pm Wilbur Elementary School 5213 Crebs Ave, Tarzana, 91356 Get involved! Make someone's holiday bright!
