'All You Need is Love' Raises Money for Hunger Relief

Hundreds attend Beatles-themed fundraiser at the Masonic Temple on Saturday.

  All you need is love. And food. But some good music doesn’t hurt, either. Hundreds attended the All You Need Is Love (and Food) event at the Lakewood Masonic Temple on Saturday. The event — presented by Trinity Lakewood Community Outreach — raised more than $3,000 for hunger relief in Lakewood. Hundreds of canned food items were collected. Beatles tunes were performed by dozens of Cleveland-area musicians. The event also featured an “all-star” choir, performing the song All You Need is Love (including yours truly, the editor of Lakewood Patch). For information about who performed, check out the preview story about the event.
