Feed America-Now Presents 10,000 MEALS!

10,000 MEALS! SATURDAY JULY 18, 2015 "Matthew 14: The miracle of fish and loaves" Free Open Banquet 11am Downtown Los Angeles at SIXTH Street & STANFORD

Cultural Ambassador to The Sunset Strip, WILLIE BASSE and his charity, http://FEEDAMERICA-NOW.org has formed partnership with ERIC TIETZ and HEART OF COMPASSION in Montebello, CA to feed the masses nationwide.

One in five Americans struggle with hunger.

The goal is to raise awareness of this epidemic in our own back yard and to take action to feed, empower and transform lives.

While on tour over the past five years, WILLIE BASSE noticed the face of hunger has changed. Basse explains, "It’s no longer the derelict drunk. It’s every day people like myself, who are willing to work, college kids, single mothers, grandparents having to choose between buying their medications, or a meal."

Companies have downsized, or gone out of business, people have lost jobs, or been laid off. It seems there is no middle class anymore. BASSE says, "I thought to myself, what can I do to make a difference?

I can have my fans bring canned goods to my concerts and make donations to food pantries in each city I play in."

Thus began his charity, Feed America-Now.

Heart Of Compassion began in 1993 when founder, Pastor Eric Tietz went door to door in his community inviting neighbors to a free breakfast in a church parking lot in Pico Rivera, CA.

HOC has grown to be a multi-million dollar food bank/distribution center providing 20-million pounds of goods annually. (including food, clothing, furniture, toys, hygiene products)

Basse was introduced to Pastor Eric and has been driving around giving away 1,000 pounds of food daily, until his current Open Heart Surgery this July.

Pastor Eric and Heart of Compassion not only help low-income families, but also assist the ’working poor’ who find themselves hard-pressed to make ends meet. Including, but not limited to social services, homeless shelters, childrens’ organizations, senior centers, after school programs and more.

Feed America-Now and Heart of Compassion have come together to make a difference and feed the masses nationwide.

Their first event together will be this Saturday, July 18, 2015 at 11:00am SIXTH STREET and STANFORD, downtown Los Angeles where they will be giving away groceries and 10,000 meals.

They are currently planning a national tour to play music and feed at food pantries nationwide, with the next event to feed Las Vegas, NV.
