City Councilman Tom LaBonge, 4th District, joined Pink’s Hot Dogs in Hollywood on April 13 in presenting a check of support to the Hollywood Police Activities League (PAL), which is a community-based crime prevention program that provides young people with positive alternatives to gangs and drugs. Hollywood PAL serves more than 450 at-risk youth annually from Hollywood and the surrounding areas of Los Angeles.
