LOS ANGELES, CA - For the 9th consecutive year, the Allen Lund Company will be playing a key role in Navidad en el Barrio's annual holiday charity campaign. This outstanding non-profit organization has been working with the growers, shippers, and carriers in the produce industry for years in order to provide food baskets to over 20,000 in-need families across Southern California. Allen Lund will be donating the cost of transporting the donated produce and providing logistics to move it into place for this campaign.
