1 in 6 families in Ventura County suffer from food insufficiency, meaning many households aren’t sure where their next meal is coming from. Families are forced to choose between paying utilities or paying for a meal, going to the doctor, or going to the grocery store. And those are decisions that no one should have to make. As of 10/8 Fillmore Fire Department has been collecting nonperishables to donate to #Feed805 on November 5th to help FEED THE 805! Together we can make a difference! Donate today by dropping off non-glass/nonperishable food items at Station 91 - 711 Landeros Lane Fillmore CA 93015. Courtesy https://www.facebook.com/cityoffillmore.
