Thanksgiving on Skid Row: A Meal to Remember

Press release from: ABNewswire

Every Thanksgiving, Eric [https://medium.com/@encinojewishjournal] organizes a large-scale effort to feed hundreds of people living on Skid Row. From warm turkeys and mashed potatoes to fresh vegetables and bottled water, he ensures that no one goes hungry on this day of gratitude.

With the help of volunteers, Eric sets up mobile serving stations and distributes individual meals, often handing them out personally with a smile and words of encouragement.

"It's not just about food-it's about showing people that someone cares about them," Eric says.

Christmas Joy: Gifts for All Ages

On Christmas, Eric returns with another heartfelt mission: delivering wrapped gifts to both children and adults living in shelters or on the streets. These care packages often include:

* Warm clothing (hats, socks, gloves)
* Hygiene kits
* Toys for children
* Blankets and sleeping bags
* Holiday treats

He often works with local outreach teams to identify those in need and hand-deliver the gifts, creating special moments for people who rarely receive anything at all.

More Than a Donation-A Human Connection

Eric's work on Skid Row goes beyond charity. His consistent presence and willingness to listen, connect, and serve has earned him the respect of the community and inspired others to join the cause.

"The goal is to treat everyone with the same respect and love we'd give our own family," Eric says. "Because everyone deserves that-especially during the holidays."

Through his selfless service from Encino to downtown Los Angeles, Eric Pony continues to lead by example proving that one person, with heart and purpose, can make the holidays brighter for hundreds in need.
