Several SAG-AFTRA Los Angeles Local members joined forces with Labor Community Services on Tuesday, Jan. 21, to pack food boxes for families impacted by the Los Angeles County wildfires. Members gathered at the Labor Community Services Warehouse in Bell Gardens, California, and spent hours sorting and packaging 1,080 food boxes to be sent out to distribution sites to meet the needs of those affected by the wildfires.
In partnership with the L.A. County Federation of Labor, Labor Community Services provides essential support to union members and their families. Its mission is to provide a safety net for union members, whether it be through the food program, disaster relief fund or financial literacy.
SAG-AFTRA has joined alongside Labor Community Services through our participation in both the annual Stamp Out Hunger campaign and WalkUnitedLA.
If you have been impacted or are interested in providing assistance, we encourage you to view our Los Angeles County Wildfires Resources page to help you or a friend find what might be needed during this challenging time.
If you would like to know when other volunteer opportunities arise, please email MoveLA@sagaftra.org to be added to the volunteer list.
