M O N T E B E L MONTEBELLO People, Places, & Events FOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK WWW.MONTEBELLOREPORTER.COM VOL. 7 NO.6 JUNE 2021 2ND ANNUAL CHALK WALK AT THE SHOPS AT MONTEBELLO TO BENEFIT THE YMCA On May 22nd and 23rd, chalk artists and families just out for a day of fun gathered again at the Shops at Montebello to chalk positive messages about the 'unity' in community and to help the Y. Artistic expression is, of course, good for the soul, as is the commission of altruistic acts, so this event truly nurtures the human spirit in at least these two ways. Fun was had and funds were raised to support the Y here in Montebello which pivoted from the very beginning of the pandemic last March to help struggling families in our community in many ways than by providing preschool care and water safety classes. When the YMCA was required by the County Health Department to close its doors for exercise classes along with other health clubs last year, the Y "opened its heart" for food distribution days (also including baby formula and diapers), drive through flu shots and Christmas toy distributions, mobile mammograms, free wi-fi for children remote learning and for family tele-med, and more. Meanwhile, YMCA memberships dropped to only 15% of those with the capacity to support the Y's good work during the pandemic, and while all Y staff were furloughed except the Operation Direc- tor, a part time staff member helping on food distribution days, and the Preschool Director who provided remote learning support to parents through grant funding, the Y relied on volunteer support and donations and foundations to cover expenses of providing its emergency relief programs delivered and to just keep the lights on. Last year's Chalk Walk and this year's generated donations help sustain the YMCA. Now that the doors are open again at the Y to welcome community members for wellness and water safety, or "swim & gym" as the Y is sometimes coined, the Y continues to provide food distri- butions two days weekly through partnerships and donor support like that which the Chalk Walk offers. Moreover, donor support makes it possible for the Y to provide financial assistance to those in need for everything from memberships to swim lessons and preschool care. If you would like to help the Y by supporting this important, Y mission work, please contact: [email protected].

MONTEBELLO PARKS & RECREATION HOST MONTHLY VOLUNTEER SERVICE DAY By James Santana Parks and Recreation Commissioner Montebello Parks & Recreation, in an effort to make a difference in the beautification and well-being of our community, hosted a volunteer service day for residents to take part on May 22, 2021. Nearly 50 residents and volunteers, including Troop 476 & Southwest Carpenters, joined together for the project. The event took place at Reggie Rodriguez and Chet Holifield parks. Volunteers completed a variety of tasks including trash pick-up, repainting, and general landscaping. For many, it was their first social interaction they have had since the beginning of the pandemic. This made it very exciting to complete together as a community. If you or someone you know would like to support these service days please call (323) 887-4540 to learn how to register and get involved. Each service day requires pre-registration for a maximum of two (2) households per site, per time slot, as social distancing is still recommended.
