Donations helped many at Christmas

The Burbank Salvation Army Community Center would like to thank the many individuals, companies, studios, Holiday Inn, City Employees, and organizations that helped make the Angel Tree Program a success again this year.

The food, toys, bicycles and gifts were distributed in a beautiful winter wonderland setting with falling snow. More than 2,200 individuals had a merrier Christmas because of our many caring volunteers and friends.

The Red Kettle Program enables us to provide food and needed supplies to numerous families each week, conduct church services in English and Spanish on Sundays, and to plan more youth and senior programs for the new Community Center.

On behalf of Lts. Eric and Kari Rudd and the individuals who were served, we wish to thank everyone who participated in 2012, and who have continued to support the Burbank Salvation Army Community Center.

We are looking forward to many more years of service to the Burbank Community.

For a tour of the facility please call Lt. Kari at (818) 845-7214.
