The La Crescenta Woman’s Club donated toys and food and made a monetary contribution to the LA County Sheriff’s Dept. toy drive at their Christmas party on Dec 8 at their decorated clubhouse at 4004 La Crescenta Ave.

Each year the Woman’s Club supports the sheriff’s toy and food drive, which helps local families in need bring smiles to the children’s faces at Christmas. The Woman’s Club also voted to send money to help the family of a Crescenta Valley High School student whose apartment burned in a fire earlier this season. For over 100 years when club members hear of a need, they have been willing to help!

For more information to rent the clubhouse or to join the Club call (818) 957-9806 or visit the website www.lacrescentawomansclub.org.

Club members are planning for their next event: their annual big bingo night on Feb. 19.
