Yom Kippur food drive a success

South County Outreach is grateful for the more than 8,300 pounds of food collected so far during this year’s Yom Kippur food drive.

Thanks to Temple Judea of Laguna Woods, Temple Beth El of South Orange County in Aliso Viejo, Temple Bat Yahm in Newport Beach and Reform Temple of Laguna Woods for their efforts to feed those in need. The food drive helps support the food pantry during the busiest time of the year. This year South County Outreach is on track to distribute more than one million pounds of food to hungry local families.

In addition to the wonderful contributions from our food drives, we are also working to stock the pantry with fresh vegetables, fruit, lean meats, milk and other dairy products. If you, your business or organization would like to be part of our food drive and fresh food funding efforts, please visit our food drive page or our donation page.
