The Food Bank’s CSFP (Commodity Supplemental Food Program) distributions serve approximately 26,000 seniors on a monthly basis.
Like many older Americans, Michael Holt is on a fixed income. “Once I pay my rent, I only have about $150 that’s got to last me the rest of the month,” he says.
The Los Angeles Regional Food Bank’s largest food distribution program is our network of more than 600 partner agencies and 1,000 distribution sites. These are schools, senior and community centers, churches and pantries.
In food-insecure households, fruits and vegetables often don’t make the grocery list.
