Holy Family Feeds 500 Locals (Video)

Volunteers from all over get together to give back to the community.

Early Monday morning a line began to form around Hundreds of families from South Pasadena and neighboring areas came to get the makings for a proper Thanksgiving dinner. Two bags of groceries and a free turkey were given out to approximately 500 people. 

Volunteers assisted with food pick-up, holding food drives, packaging food, helping clients to their cars with the groceries and prepping snacks for the clients to eat while they waited in line. This was truly an example of selfless giving in the holiday spirit.
