Anarchist Group Gives Out Free Food, Clothes And Foreclosure Advice

"About 100 people lined up at noon Saturday in Graceada Park for free food, clothes and advice on home foreclosures.

The event was sponsored by Modesto Anarcho, a group that publishes a quarterly newsletter promoting "a stateless and classless society."

"We want a community space for people to get the things they need," said Doug Anderson of Modesto Anarcho. "Local charities and aid organizations are stretched to the max."

The group also wanted a forum where people could talk about issues such as home foreclosures, Anderson said. "We want community-bred solutions to the crises the valley finds itself in.""
