The Glendale Eagles provided a free turkey dinner to anyone who came through the door. They served about 400 plates and also provided food for two firehouses and and entire shift at a local hospital. The Glendale Eagles Aerie and Auxiliary members came together with friends and family to make this happen and partnered with a local charity Labor Community Services, Los Angeles to make 300 boxes of non-perishable food items available for anyone in need.

Weeki Wachee, Florida - November 2023

Nancy Sina, PWP & Mike Bollinger, Trustee delivered a donation check of $3,000 to Forgotten Angels on Friday, October 27th. They take in boys aging out of foster care who are left homeless. With their assistance, the boys have to finish high school/GED and retain employment. They build their own cabin on the 15 acre property. They're taught carpentry, plumbing, electrical, and a myriad of other life skills that will enable them to become independent, self supporting men.

Weeki Wachee also donated art & pantry supplies to Veterans Heat, which is a free service to help veterans with PTSD heal.
