  • Yazmin receives donated LA County food resources at Iglesia El Lirio de los Valles, a Food Bank partner agency in Lancaster, to help her family get through tough times In today’s economy, many individuals and families are doing whatever they can to save money in order to get through the month. Unfortunately, this may mean cutting back on necessary items like medicine and, in some cases, on meals. The Los Angeles Regional Food Bank works with nonprofit organizations, or partner agencies, throughout LA County to help maximize its reach and put food on the table for hundreds of thousands of neighbors like Yazmin. Year-round, from Long Beach to Lancaster, neighbors can visit these partner agencies to receive free LA County food resources, and in some agencies, additional services are available. At the Iglesia El Lirio de los Valles in Lancaster, the food distribution comes as a blessing to many in the Antelope Valley. Yazmin is one of the hundreds of individuals who visit the Iglesia El Lirio de los Valles in Lancaster for its food assistance. Like many families, she has to look at her grocery list, her budget, take a deep breath and go to the grocery store and hope for the best. However, on many occasions, items are too expensive to purchase. “The items that go up in price, we can no longer afford so easily,” she said. “Before, we used to be able to buy two gallons of milk, and now we can only buy a small one.” Consider joining the fight against hunger: https://lnkd.in/gpWnzMtH

  • For many seniors, food and nutrition insecurity are an everyday challenge. Rising food costs, rent and medication make it difficult to afford nutritious meals, leading to tough choices—like skipping meals or opting for unhealthy alternatives. Gary, a senior living in Koreatown, faces these challenges firsthand. After rehabilitation, he struggled with low energy, but he found support at the St. James Episcopal Church food pantry. Thanks to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank's partnerships with organizations across LA County, food distributions like this provide essential nutrition for older adults living on fixed incomes. Programs like these are a lifeline for seniors with fixed incomes. Learn more about Gary’s story on our blog: https://lnkd.in/gUF2mJtw

  • The wildfires devastated thousands of families—destroying homes, jobs, and security. The need hasn't gone away. For more than 27 years, Foothill Unity Center has worked alongside the LA Regional Food Bank to serve families across the San Gabriel Valley. Your new or increased monthly gift can still be doubled, making twice the impact for families facing food and nutrition insecurity. Let's make sure no one faces hunger alone. https://lnkd.in/gH3QfmKp
