Over the Thanksgiving holiday 2020, volunteers in Northeast Los Angeles arranged to serve holiday turkey dinners to hundreds of elderly residents in the area.
The meals are among a series of community-led, governmental and even ad-hoc efforts to make sure that seniors have enough food during the pandemic.
One of the efforts involved three holiday meals over two days for some 155 senior citizens in two local affordable-housing apartment buildings: Tres Lomas Garden Apartments on Toland Way, near the border of Eagle Rock and Glassell Park, and Reflections on Yosemite Drive.
