WELCOME TO OUR SUNDAY LUNCH DRIVE

STUDENTS - CLICK HERE

Thank you so much for joining us in helping feed our neighbors!

Here’s everything you need to know:

  1. The lunch drive happens every Sunday morning. Rain or shine.

  2. You make lunches at home.

  3. Most folks make about 10 lunches, but you can make as many or as few as you like.

  4. Label the bag with the type of sandwich (this is important and allows us to give the recipients a choice)

  5. Be generous.  This is the only meal these folks get all day.

  6. Lunches should contain at least 7 items:

    • A drink (water, Capri sun, soda)

    • Sandwich (PB+J, Turkey, Ham + Cheese are most common)

    • Potato Chips (individually packaged)

    • Fruit (oranges, apple sauce, bananas. No apples: too hard on teeth)

    • Cookies (individually packaged)

    • A  snack (beef jerky, granola bar, nuts, etc.)

  7. No Glass

  8. Some people decorate their bags. Not required but much appreciated.

  9. Drop your lunches off at one of the drop-off locations:

WHAT HAPPENS TO OUR LUNCHES?

Lots of people ask us this.  After you drop your lunches off, a bunch of us, load them into our cars and drive them over to the Hollywood Food Coalition in Hollywood (If you'd like to help us do that, please email Jennifer at hangoutdogood@gmail.com). The Hollywood Food Coalition finds a home for every single one. They reach out 20-30 organizations all across the city -- organizations like PATH, Circle of Friends, Covenant House, The Center at Blessed Sacrament, etc -- and those organizations come pick up the lunches and distribute them to their clients Sunday afternoon.  The important thing to know is that without the Hollywood Food Coalition, this would not be happening.  So, if you are looking for an organization to donate to, please consider them. You can donate here:  https://hofoco.org/donate/

Again, thanks so much for joining us!

We look forward to getting to know you!
