LOS ANGELES REGIONAL FOOD BANK...
is looking for a few volunteers!

The Food Bank Today
The year 2017 marks the Food Bank's 44 years of service to the residents of Los Angeles County. Over the years, the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank has grown in size, service and scope. Today the Food Bank provides food for 640 partner agencies with over 1,000 sites including abused and abandoned children homes, battered women shelters, senior centers, local food pantries, soup kitchens, AIDS hospices and more. In 2011, our volunteers, financial supporters, product donors and agency network made it possible for us to distribute 60 million pounds of food for the hungry in Los Angeles county.
 
From Warehouse to Table
Food is donated to Los Angeles Regional Food Bank from local and national food manufacturers, wholesalers, supermarkets, restaurant suppliers, packers, processors and brokers. Once a shipment of food is received at our warehouse, it is sorted, inspected, and if necessary, repacked for distribution to participating charities in Los Angeles County.

We sort, inspect, repackage and distribute thousands of pounds of food each day with the help of dedicated volunteers. Last year, over 31,000 volunteers donated their time to the Food Bank.

Charities order and pick up the products they need from the Food Bank on a weekly basis. They then serve the food to needy families, children and individuals free of charge. Through these charities, over 1 million people receive healthy meals each year.
