Last year we collected 6,500
lbs. of food which made a huge impact in many families’ lives.
This year we would like to double that number and we need your
help! We ask that you hold your own food drive and bring the items
you collect to our event on Sunday, November 24th. We
can provide you with collection bins for your collection effort.
Food drives are a great way for friends, family, businesses, religious
institutions, schools and youth groups to help others in our community that may
need additional support.
Please contact us at (310)
444-0725 for additional information or to request a food collection bin.
You can also sign up and get more information about this event online at

2. LAPD Crime
Alert
COMMUNITY ALERT!
CONSTRUCTION SITE
BURGLARIES
There have been a series of
Construction Site Burglaries developing in the West Los Angeles Area. The
suspects will target the construction site during the night time hours or on
weekends when the contractors and workers are not on site. In cases where the
tools and equipment have been secured in a lock box or connex storage container,
the suspects have used cutting equipment and blow torches to cut into the
secured metal containers. In light of this trend the Los Angeles Police
Department is making the following recommendations.
· REMOVE ALL TOOLS AND
EQUIPMENT FROM THE JOB SITE AT THE END OF THE WORK DAY. IF THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE
THEN CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS:
· ALARMS: Security Alarms should be installed on any structures or containers securing any tools and equipment.
· AFTER HOURS SECURITY: Consider hiring a private security guard to monitor the site after hours and on weekends when there are no contractors or workers present.
· SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS: Web based surveillance camera systems will allow contractors to view and monitor activity from any smartphone or computer which are motion sensor activated and will alert your device when there is activity. They also lend valuable information and clues to the investigation.
· GATES: Ensure that all gates and access points to the construction site are locked and secured with heavy duty pad locks and chains.
· LIGHTING: Add appropriate lighting or motion sensor lighting to the site during the hours of darkness.
· NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH: Most construction burglaries are occurring in residential neighborhoods. Should neighbors of a residential construction site observe suspicious activities, CONTACT THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY! Should the activity escalate to what you believe to be a crime about to occur, crime in progress or crime that just occurred, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY!

4. Center for
the Art of Performance at UCLA
Center for the Art of
Performance at UCLA (CAP UCLA) is dedicated to the advancement of the
contemporary performing arts in all disciplines — dance, music, spoken word and
theater, as well the emerging digital, collaborative and cross-art platforms
inspired by today's leading artists and creators. CAP supports the creation,
presentation and critical dialogues vital to the ongoing innovation and
expressive potential of artists whose work, whether vibrantly emerging or
internationally acclaimed, forms the dynamic and evolving heritage of
contemporary performance.
Based in UCLA's iconic Royce
Hall, CAP UCLA is the university's public center for the presentation of the
performing arts and contributes to the cultural life of the campus and greater
Los Angeles, promoting civic dialogue and creative inquiry. Through an annual
season of performing arts programs and extensive community-engagement events —
including artist fellows and residency programs, K–12 arts education (Design for
Sharing), student mentorship (Student Committee for the Arts), and art-making
and experiential activities (Art in Action) — CAP UCLA advances the importance
of art in society by celebrating and deepening the connection between artist and
audience.
