#GivingTuesdayNow

LA Food Bank setting up at the LA Forum

LA Food Bank setting up at the LA Forum

On April 10th, the historic LA Forum was used as a 'mega' distribution center for the LA Food Bank.  Over 7,500 families waited 2-3 hours for groceries.  A bit surreal that this is Los Angeles, one of the wealthiest cities in America.  And a location where I’ve experienced so much joy, The Forum!  I’ve enjoyed too many live music shows there to count. Due to the pandemic, the LA Food Bank has gone from feeding 300,000 per month, to over 500,000.  The demand for food assistance is skyrocketing. Food banks everywhere need our help. 

Too many Americans were food insecure before the pandemic wiped out 30 million jobs. The hunger crisis, as you can imagine, has grown exponentially. Unfortunately, many kids rely on school for their only balanced meal of the day. Hamilton Wealth donated $10,000 today to the LA Food Bank to play our small part on #GivingTuesdayNow. We are incredibly grateful for your loyalty, which allows us to be responsible citizens and help the less fortunate.
