Five hundred families will participate in St. Margaret’s Center’s Christmas Program – 2024. The families are low-income; most live below the poverty level, and reside in the greater airport area of Los Angeles (primarily Inglewood-Lennox-Hawthorne-Lawndale-Gardena-South Los Angeles-South Bay). About 70% of the families are Spanish-speaking, although many of them are bilingual. Most of the families regularly receive food or other services at St. Margaret’s, and have applied for the Christmas Program. Each family will receive a $50 food certificate, and three - four toys per child 12 and under.
The event will take place at Lennox Middle School in Lennox. The school is located at 11033 Buford Ave., Lennox 90304, at 111th St. Parking for volunteers is located at the school entrance on W. 111th Place, on the south side of the school.
