Frontline Foundation : ウィキペディア英語版 | Frontline Foundation The Frontline Foundation, located in downtown Los Angeles, California, is a non-profit charity organization that serves emergency meals to people on Skid Row. As of July 2006, it had served over 860,000 meals. Each day volunteers serve over 200 homeless people. ==History== The Frontline Foundation was founded in 1987 by Raymond Castellani, a former character actor who most often played bad guys in Westerns. During the 1970s, Castellani became homeless after a struggle with alcoholism. Initially, Frontline consisted of Castellani serving peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and a pot of coffee to a group of homeless people at 5th and San Pedro streets. Today, the Frontline Foundation operates on a budget of approximately $60,000 per year. In 1995, President of the United States Bill Clinton honored Castellani with the President's Service Award, the United States' highest award for volunteers.〔http://frontline-foundation.org/longwalk.htm〕
