Hunger Heroes During Coronavirus Crisis

Fulfilling the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank’s mission during this crisis is made possible by our Hunger Heroes, such as the Butterfly Equity Foundation. As the Coronavirus crisis unfolded, the Foundation took action in the LA County community by starting a fundraiser to benefit the Food Bank. In less than one week, the Foundation raised more than $100,000, which will provide more than 400,000 meals to our hungry neighbors in need during these challenging times.

Since the pandemic was announced, the Food Bank has received an influx of phone calls from individuals, seniors and families requesting food. Thanks to the generous contributions from organizations like the Butterfly Equity Foundation, the Food Bank can continue serving the LA County community without disruption.

Our hungry neighbors need our support now more than ever. Join our fight against hunger during these trying times, become a hunger hero by starting your own fundraiser. Together, #WeFeedLA.
