Photograph caption dated November 1, 1961 partially reads, "The faces of the Community Chest are many. There is the face of youth, who needs guidance, Community Chest has 45 services working with troubled youths. There is the face of a child without a home, without parents, alone. There are 35 services caring for homeless children and children in trouble. Community Chest serves the aged beginning new lives after retirement. And Community Chest funds help youth develop constructive futures through organized activities. The cub scout is an example. Thursday is Community chest Day. Thousands of Valley women will march door-to-door, appealing for funds to help the many faces of the Community Chest...Last year, 110,545 persons in the Valley were helped by the Community Chest, whose offices are at 14419 Burbank Blvd., Van Nuys."; See images #00133138 through #00133140 for all photos in this series.
