Sending a huge thank you to @nithyaforthecity for Sending a huge thank you to @nithyaforthecity for selecting us! This is an honor and we will continue to do good work for our great community that we love 365 days a year! #endhomelessness #endhunger Via the fantastic @lagoodfood Congratulations to @hollywoodfoodco! Council District 4 @nithyaforthecity selected them as their district’s Good Food Champion this year! The Hollywood Food Coalition (HoFoCo) seeks to construct a more cohesive, just, and compassionate community, and serves over 50,000 delicious and healthy meals annually to unhoused and food insecure individuals, every single night of the year since 1987. In response to skyrocketing food insecurity throughout the city, exacerbated by the pandemic, HoFoCo opened the Community Exchange program in May 2020 to fill a missing component in the food rescue process. The Exchange is a free food concierge service that aims to provide small to medium-sized social service nonprofits with the food they need, when they want it, so they can focus on their missions. Just this year, HoFoCo rescued over 600,000 lbs of food from over 130 businesses and food recovery groups, and efficiently shared with over 60 nonprofits, providing an average of 10,550 meals per week to partner organizations. Click the link in our bio to read more about this year’s Good Food Champions and ways to support them! . 🎉From feeding frontline workers to organizing food distributions, across Los Angeles we have amazing food heroes who are going above and beyond for our communities, especially during this difficult time. Join us alongside LA County Supervisors, LA City Councilmembers, and their districts in celebrating some of the many heroes out there making a difference in our community! 📣You can support their businesses or organizations by learning more about who they are and what they do.

Despite how tough this year has been for so many i Despite how tough this year has been for so many in so many ways, with far too many of our neighbors struggling just to make sure they have food, one of the undeniably bright spots has been the galvanizing response from thousands of people asking, "How can I help?" @givingtuesday is a day to reach out and make a difference - to stand for compassion and spread the spirit of change in our community. We're on track to serve more meals to our unhoused and food-insecure clients this year than ever before in our 33 years - over 60,000 meals!  It's been a year full of challenges, yet we have remained open for our clients every single night. They mean the world to us, and we refuse to walk away and leave them alone. Everyone deserves a hot meal each and every day. Everyone deserves the dignity of a full stomach. We would love to close out Giving Tuesday strongly, to send a message to anyone hurting and hungry that "we are here for you, today and tomorrow." Link in profile to donate ♥🌐🙌 #GivingTuesday #hofoco #foodinsecurity #endhomelessness #volunteerism #neighborshelpingneighbors #bekindfirst #endhunger #fighthunger #thankyoula
For National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Wee For National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week we wanted to highlight one of our amazing volunteers, @sophieminoosh  “I’m grateful that I can help at the Community Exchange, where thousands of pounds of food are rescued and distributed to organizations in need every day! It’s such a rewarding feeling to know of the immediate impact for hundreds of people in the Hollywood community. We really get to know our recipient organizations, and that makes putting together an order just like handcrafting a gift. For example, the recipients who deliver a meal directly to someone in need look for ready-to-go meals, while the recipients who deliver food to homebound seniors would like meats, veggies, and rice. Being able to provide a personalized service for such great organizations is really, really special.” We're grateful that Sophie found us! The goal of #hhweek2020 is to draw attention to the problems of hunger and homelessness so today we wanted to focus on encouraging everyone to look around your community, hometowns, and neighborhoods to find ways to help.  Together we can #endhunger and #endhomelessness!    #hofoco #hhweek #foodinsecurity#volunteerism #volunteerlife #neighborshelpingneighbors #hollywoodlife #foodinsecurity #unhoused
This week is Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Wee This week is Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week. The goal of #hhweek2020 is to draw attention to the problems of hunger and homelessness. Today we wanted to focus on how seasonal changes can be life threatening to our community. Our unhoused population is the most vulnerable to changes in the weather so for #hhweek we worked with our meal service leads to identify what our clients need most and create a wishlist. Within 3 days ALL OF THE WISHES WE'RE FILLED! We can not thank everyone enough for donating and sharing our posts! We'll have enough to provide essentials for our community partners too! Protecting our clients from the elements is just a small action that we can take to as we work to #endhunger and #endhomelessness! ❤️ #hofoco #foodinsecurity #volunteerism #volunteerlife #neighborshelpingneighbors #hollywoodlife #foodinsecurity
