ABOUT WESTSIDE FOOD BANK
For more than 40 years, Westside Food Bank (WSFB) has led the fight against hunger and food insecurity on Los Angeles’ Westside. WSFB was founded in 1981 by the Westside Ecumenical Council — a coalition of Westside social service agencies — to create a more efficient food security network. WSFB is among the founders of the Westside Coalition on Housing, Hunger, and Health and the California Association of Food Banks. WSFB is the primary bulk wholesale food supplier for 60+ nonprofit social service agencies that operate food assistance programs in West Los Angeles County. More than 90% of WSFB’s food gets into the kitchens of local residents via 38 food pantries that distribute free groceries including the six direct-service mobile pantries operated by WSFB staff.
