Most of us have dieted at some time in our lives. Remember how deprived we felt, just cutting back or changing some of our eating habits? Now, imagine if you had no choice. You could count on only one meal a day, And you had to hope it would be enough to fill you up and keep you going until the next day.
That's what it is like for the homeless who come to Burbank Temporary Aid Center for thier daily sack lunches. We try to have a hearty sandwich, fruit, beverage, something sweet, as well as salty. But with your funds, we can add in some extras to help stave off the hunger pangs.
Sometimes it is as simple as adding a few granola bars or some fresh fruit. But we would really like to add in an extra sandwich, too. So, your donation helps make that possible.
Every day, we hear the words of thanks as lunches are distributed. But that thanks is also for you. For your caring touches lives every day.
Thanks for your support.
