An open letter to friends and family

On Saturday, Nov. 19, Kay and I are walking in the Fallbrook Food Pantry’s Thanksgiving 5k Walk/Run to Feed the Hungry. We would like to invite you to join us or to support us with a tax deductible donation.

Do you know that the food pantry helps approximately 100 local families each day by providing food to those in our community who are living below the federally-approved poverty level? They help working families with children as well as many senior citizens who live on a very low fixed income and need our support.

The food pantry is able to do this only because of generous contributions of food, money and volunteer hours given by groups and individuals in the greater Fallbrook area. These are hard economic times, but you and I can help.

Please come to the Fallbrook Food Pantry, 1042 S. Mission Road in Fallbrook at 8:30 a.m. on Nov. 19, or go to

http://www.fallbrookfoodpantry.org and click on Donations Needed and donate. Together we can make a real difference in the lives of people in our own community.
