Laborers of the Harvest, one of our grantees, launched a campaign for Random Acts of Kindness Week! As their campaign comes to a close, we encourage you to give to this wonderful organization to support their efforts in addressing food insecurity in Kern County. Find out how to donate here: https://lnkd.in/gZujJF7R Laborers of the Harvest offers 3 bags of fresh food for just $10 in Arvin (6 days a week) and Frazier Park (1 day a week). They aim to provide food to those who work during the day, but anyone is welcome -- no questions asked.
