Thank you to our Board of Directors for their active participation and invaluable contributions during our annual retreat! It's an honor to have such a passionate and dedicated group leading the way toward our future!
Early this month, we had our in-person Annual Retreat and I'm beyond grateful that we were able to reflect and engage in meaningful conversations about the next chapter of Hollywood Food Coalition. Thank you to: James Alva and Adelante Partners Inc. for facilitating our day, and Brooke Noel Lykins for a fantastic presentation on fundraising strategy. And a HUGE THANK YOU to Cecilia Gomez at Ovation Hollywood for the gorgeous space!

Like ours, HoFoCo’s aim is to create lasting, sustainable change for future generations.

We’re thrilled to announce that the Nonprofit Sustainability Initiative (NSI) has awarded Hollywood Food Coalition, Polo’s Pantry, Farm2People (F2P), and API Forward Movement (APIFM) critical support through their NSI Exploratory Grant! The NSI exploratory grant is designed for organizations ready to move into structured discussions aimed at developing a strategic partnership. We are so excited to dive into conversations around capacity building and resource sharing facilitated by Remy De La Peza with morena strategies. Collectively, our organizations already serve a multitude of distinct communities throughout LA. Together, we can create even more impact and work toward building a more food-secure LA County. The NSI Exploratory Grant has been made possible thanks to the support of The Ralph M. Parsons Foundation, The Ahmanson Foundation, The Carl & Roberta Deutsch Foundation, and Cedars-Sinai, among others. More information on their work and a full list of initiative funders can be found at nsifund.org.

Thank you for your great work, Arnali! And many thanks to all the panelists and to WasteExpo!
Last week, I attended the Waste 360 conference and I had the honor of presenting on a panel with these incredible group of women. We shared about the power of collaboration in food recovery and designing progams based on the feedback of the communities we serve. It is humbling and a privilege to do such meaningful work alongside wonderful colleagues. A special thanks to Michelle Mikesell at LASAN for organizing this panel!

We are excited to announce that we received a $25,000 grant from State Farm to support our Community Exchange program. “We are grateful to State Farm for their continued support of our work and, more specifically, of our food rescue and distribution efforts within Los Angeles County,” said Arnali Ray, LMFT, Executive Director. “With last year’s grant from State Farm, which helped us purchase a new refrigerated truck, we increased the amount of food rescued by 17%, totaling 2,580,000 pounds. Over 2.2 million pounds were shared with our network of over 160 non-profit recipients, with the remaining pounds of food going to our Community Dinner program, which has served a nightly multi-course meal to our neighbors facing food insecurity since 1987.” Thank you, State Farm!
