Join us so that no one goes hungry

Together we can make a difference

When families know where their next meal is coming from, they can focus on staying housed, keeping their car running, going to work, and managing their health. It means they’re not forced to choose between groceries and other necessities. It gives them stability and dignity.

Food distribution takes place at our facility at 14080 Palm Drive, Suite E, Desert Hot Springs, CA 92240. We are providing contactless drive through food distributions weekly on Wednesday and Thursday from 7:30 a. m. till 10:30 a. m.
