LOS ANGELES, Nov. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Salvation Army, Nickelodeon, Paramount and Casa Vertigo hosted the Annual Feast of Sharing Thanksgiving meal event on Tuesday, November 22nd at Casa Vertigo in Los Angeles. It was the first in-person event in two years after the beloved annual event transitioned to a drive through Thanksgiving meal distribution during the pandemic.
In the spirit of the holidays, Nickelodeon and Paramount sponsored The Salvation Army event to provide a warm catered traditional Thanksgiving meal and entertainment to hundreds of families in the Pico Union District. Approximately 1,200 people attended one of two seatings (4pm and 7pm) in the historic venue. Casa Vertigo generously donated the space for the evening.
"For nearly a decade, the impact that this partnership with Nickelodeon has had on the downtown area of Los Angeles during Thanksgiving is extraordinarily meaningful," said Col. John Chamness, Divisional Commander of The Salvation Army's California South Division. "In that span of time, more than 15,000 people have been served a delicious holiday meal and have been treated to an experience they'll never forget, and we are so grateful."
