Regarding the Upward Bound facility at the intersection of Washington Boulevard and Beethoven Street in West Culver City, Upward Bound may indeed have been helping homeless families since 1991, but not in Culver City. (Their main facility is in Santa Monica.)

I feel I owe Les and Paulette Greenberg an apology. About 5 o’clock Monday evening, as I was delivering meals to two of our guests who are unable to get up the stairs to Parish Hall we use for Grace Diner, I saw the Greenbergs taking an early evening stroll on Overland Avenue. in front of Grace Lutheran Church.
