Los Angeles Regional Food Bank

About

Our vision is that no one goes hungry in Los Angeles County.

Story

Pasadena resident Tony Collier is the founder of the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and started the food banking concept in 1973 at the Grandview Foundation. Collier, a cook, received more food donations from local businesses than he anticipated, and shared them with other organizations helping the hungry. Four members of the community impressed with Collier’s work formed a voluntary Board of Directors and incorporated the Foodbank as an independent nonprofit organization.

Mission

The mission of the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank is to mobilize resources to fight hunger in our community.

To fulfill our mission we:

Energize the community to get involved and support hunger relief;

Great organization providing food for children, families, and seniors all over Los Angeles. Great to see all the ways they reduce food waste and fight hunger at the same time. Teamwork and exercise and a fun way to volunteer a few hours on a Saturday morning.

Definitely a great place to volunteer, not to mention the staff is responsive, friendly, and approachable. I've been here about 4 times now and the most recent time, I organized a volunteer event for my alumni association.
