LA CAÑADA FLINTRIDGE, CA - As the season of giving approaches, the Allen Lund Company is once again shining a light on the spirit of generosity that defines the produce industry. Few industries are as family-oriented, community-driven, or willing to step up when help is needed most—and this annual effort is one of the strongest examples. Below is the company’s announcement detailing its continued partnership with Navidad en el Barrio.
Since 2004, the Allen Lund Company has supported the efforts of Navidad en el Barrio. Established in 1972 by former NFL player Danny Villanueva, local Hispanic radio, and students from UCLA, the organization is dedicated to helping underserved families around the Los Angeles area by providing components for a Christmas dinner.
"For 21 years, the Allen Lund Company has worked with Navidad en el Barrio to support the annual event of distributing groceries for the makings of a Christmas meal. Growers have been so generous over the years, providing a healthy Christmas dinner. This year, we are especially challenged given the desperate need for food. We are asking any growers in the Western U.S. if they can donate fruit or vegetables."
The Allen Lund Company provides the transportation from the growers to Southern California, where they are divided and distributed. Perishable donations can be accepted the week of December 8th, and the families will receive their food on Saturday, December 13, 2025.
If you are interested in donating, please reach out to Nora Trueblood via email at [email protected].
