The Great Venice Toy Drive, a project of the Venice Neighborhood Council, kicks off at the VNC Board Meeting on November 15th. The toy drive and giveaway will inaugurate what the VNC hopes will become an annual event in Venice. VNC Board Member Mariana Aguilar, who heads the Toy Drive, said “Venice has hasn’t had a toy giveaway that is open to the public for many years. We’re really looking forward to starting a new holiday tradition for our kids!”
The VNC is asking stakeholders to bring unwrapped, non-violent toys to the VNC Board of Officers meeting next Tuesday, 11/15/2011. It starts at 7PM in the Westminster Elementary School Auditorium, 1010 Abbot Kinney Blvd. in Venice. Santa will be on hand when the toys are distributed on December 10th, during a fun-filled day for children at the Oakwood Recreation Center.
Toys can also be dropped off any time through December 8th at Abbot’s Habit, 1401 Abbot Kinney Blvd, and at Fabric Planet, 423 Lincoln Blvd; or on Friday mornings at the VNC Booth at the Venice Farmers’ Market, at the intersection of Venice and Venice Way, between 7:30AM and 10.30AM.
LA City Councilwoman Jan Perry will be at the meeting to address stakeholders. Ms. Perry represents the Ninth City Council district, which includes Downtown LA, Bunker Hill, Little Tokyo, South Park, Vermont Square, and other South Los Angeles neighborhoods. She has been involved with housing and homelessness, Air Quality and re-development in Downtown LA and and South LA.
The VNC will also hear a motion requesting the City’s Bureau of Street Services to “repair, reconstruct and maintain the alleys” in Venice. As part of this motion, the VNC commits “to work with the community to identify alleys in need of repair.” Also scheduled for the meeting are motions that would allocate $3800 to three initiatives proposed by the VNC’s Public Safety Committee.
In Administrative matters, the VNC Board will hear from candidates nominated for Vice-President. A new Vice-President will be elected by the Board in December to fill the unexpired term of Carolyn Rios, who resigned at the Board’s last meeting.
Snacks and coffee will be provided at the meeting.
