Open Arms Food Pantry and Resource Center takes pride every year to support countless households within LA County through our TurkeyTastic event by supporting families with much needed food kits, turkeys, poultry and organic produce. While we celebrate Thanksgiving with our families and loved ones many families are without food, are experiencing hardships that are unbearable and cannot purchase basic need items such a infant diapers or hygiene product. This event is to take a moment to make families feel loved, appreciated and supported with esssentials they need to promote healthy bodies, healthy minds and lower stress. The event takes place at our community center located in the heart of South LA at 2010 West 62nd Street LA CA 90047. It will take place from 11am to 1pm and provide turkey, food kits, basic need kits and more... We need your help and ask to uplift communities disadvantaged today.
Open Arms Food Pantry has supported 80,000 families and individuals within LA County this past year and each year our impact increases within impoverished communities. Although LA County is one of the richest counties in America our cities are home to many micro neighborhoods that are living under the standard LMI of 200% or more. This leads to poverty stricken families barely making ends meet as the rents and cost of goods increase. Many residents are becoming homeless which is all to common now because of wages not matching the average cost of living in Los Angeles. Our mission and purpose is simple. We advocate for food equity to impact families and those aged. All to well these groups experience poor diets and food insecurity. All year our food pantry supports these groups as well as our two holiday events that impact hundreds of families and individuals pre-selected that truly need a helping hand. We have been there for US Military, Domestic Violence survivors, Transitional Age Youth, Aged and Families with disabled children and now we ask for your help no matter the size. We would love for you to be apart of our support this Thanksgiving Holiday.
We welcome Corporate Partners to make in-kind donations of new products to support our Thanksgiving Community event named TurkeyTastic in the heart of Los Angeles, CA.
