Union Station Homeless Services in Pasadena is looking for your Christmas cards and food donations for their Christmas event on Sunday.

The event will serve a Christmas meal complete with ham and pie to homeless to between 500 and 700 adults and family members.

Director Stephanie Harris says they have more than enough volunteers this year, but there are still ways you can help.

"For this event, we are handing out personal, signed Christmas cards to every single person who attends. We want all of our guests to have a thoughtful, special card," she tells KPCC.

They're accepting homemade and store bought cards. They're also asking for store-bought food items, like dinner rolls and pie. You can drop off your donations at their offices by 5 p.m. Friday. They'll also accept cards and food on Sunday between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. at their adult center at 412 South Raymond Avenue.

The event is usually held at nearby Central Park in Pasadena. This year, for the first time, the annual event will be held at their adult center.

Harris says the volunteers are a key part of making everything happen.

"Not only will we be having volunteers cooking the food, they'll also be providing wait-service to all of the guests attending the event," Harris said. "We wanted to really provide that home-cooked, homey feel for the guests and really let them kick their feet up for an hour or two while they came and enjoyed their Christmas meal with us."
