Councilmember David NewmanLooking for a way to give back this holiday season? The Conejo Senior Volunteer Program has some great ideas about ongoing food programs:
1. Food Share of Ventura County β Host a Food Drive
Help make sure no one in Ventura County goes hungry! Food Share distributes 21+ million pounds of food every year through 200 local partners. Anyone can host a food drive β year-round, not just during the holidays. Food drives are a powerful way to support families, seniors, and kids in our community.

2. Food Forward β Donate Your Fruit
Do you have fruit trees? Over 1,000 generous neighbors are already donating extra fruit from their yards to Food Forward. Your surplus fruit helps provide fresh, healthy food to people facing food insecurity.
π Register your tree or learn more at https://foodforward.org/donate-food/
3. Harbor House β Daily Meal Program & Case Support
Harbor House provides hot meals and sack lunches every day. They also offer referrals, case management, help finding housing or employment, and more β all aimed at building a just, caring community.
