Mission

OUR PRIMARY PURPOSE IS TO HELP SOLVE THE HUNGER CRISIS IN LOS ANGELES. WE REALLOCATE GOODS THAT ARE OTHERWISE GOING TO BE THROWN OUT DIRECTLY TO SOMEONE IN NEED. WE WORK PRIMARILY WITH FILM AND TV SETS; PICKING UP THEIR GOURMET EXCESS MEALS AND DISTRIBUTING THEM TO THOSE GOING WITHOUT. WE ALSO DISTRIBUTE AROUND 1,000 KITS TO THE UNHOUSED A YEAR AND HOST A YEARLY THANKSGIVING FOOD EVENT; FEEDING HUNDREDS. WE AIM TO HELP FEED AS MANY IN NEED AS WE CAN DAILY. WE SERVICE SHELTERS, COMMUNITY FRIDGES, AND ENCAMPMENTS BY REPURPOSING DELICIOUS MEALS THAT OTHERWISE WOULD CONTRIBUTE TO OOUR LANDFILLS.

Highest-paid independent contractors

No independent contractors reported.

Who gave

Contributor names are not public for this form type.

Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.

Finances

Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Funders of this organization

11 grantors reported grants to this organization, $290,274 in all, tax years 2020 to 2024. Exact: the grantor wrote this organization's EIN.

Where the money went

Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
