Los Angeles Food Bank

Due to school closures and “Safer at Home” quarantines, new members of our community are missing essential meals. While the coronavirus is impacting low-income communities, the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank is mobilizing resources to help people in need of food assistance throughout Los Angeles County. If you are in need or know of someone who needs food assistance, the food bank offers a list of food distributions at agency partner sites throughout L.A. County. Dial 211 or go online and click “our pantry locator.” Since the need is high and volunteer activity has declined, the food bank is currently implementing a contingency plan to supplement the regular food bank staff and volunteer with new volunteers, and is seeking food donations from regular food industry donors and supplementing with food purchases of specific items. The food bank is monitoring the COVID-19 situation closely and taking necessary precautions to help make sure that food and products remain safe, so distributions and volunteer activities can continue. The pandemic has resulted in unplanned expenses for the food bank, financial contributions are greatly appreciated. A donation of $100 helps supply up to 400 meals. lafoodbank.org.
