QUICK OVERVIEW Each Thursday, Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club offers a food bank to the community including anyone with a need. MISSION Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club's mission is to enable and inspire youth, especially young people who need us most, to realize their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible members of the community. IMPACT The community served has a disproportionately high number of families with children living in poverty. There is also a large community of seniors with no support systems such as social security to depend on and who come weekly for assistance with food from our food bank. The Club picks up food from LA Regional Food Bank, brings the food to the Club, and packs the food to distribute each Thursday. We work hard to bring a variety of items including fresh produce, meat/poultry/proteins, dried goods, and some canned items. The Boys & Girls Club receives no government or foundation funding to support our food bank. We depend on volunteers to assist in the process in order to keep the program going for members of the community. VOLUNTEER ROLES & RESPONSIBILITY Pack dried and hot goods into boxes. Distribute food boxes to the community. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Approx 150-200 people come to the Club each week for help with food. In addition, 20-50 families with children at the Boys & Girls Club also receive food. Location: The Club is located in Lincoln Heights, a community in Northeast Los Angeles. Times: 3pm-6pm Days: Thursdays, Ongoing Thank you for considering volunteering at Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club's weekly Thursday Food Bank.
