Thank you Downey Federal Credit Union for collecting over 50 grocery bags of food that will feed families in need. Neighbors helping neighbors! #DFCUcares https://www.downeyfcu.org/
Neighbors helping neighbors food drive hosted by ABC Donuts. Your donation can provide meals to the families, children, seniors, & vulnerable communities who are facing hunger this holiday season. ABC Donuts will be accepting donations all of December. #Downeystrong #unleashingCompassion
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! This holiday season is different for everyone and more so when it comes to food insecurity. Give back this holiday to help our neighbors by donating your time! Every Saturday we serve over 250 families facing hardships. Due to COVID19 we practice contactless distribution, where food is pre-packed and loaded into car trunks during drive through. Volunteering is a work of heart ... Foodhelp / Downey First Christian Church 10909 New Street Downey, CA 90241 Every Saturday 8am-1pm (Clean up help needed 11am-1pm) **We are taking precautions to prioritize volunteer safety by enforcing CDC COVID19 guidelines. #givingtuesday2020
The new building foundation is inspected and approved. Next, we have to wait on concrete. Apparently with Gov. Newsome's quarantine orders, all concrete powder entering the port has to sit there for two weeks. Then State, County and City projects get priority :-( The food bank has been waiting for concrete, but was informed that we are scheduled for a December 1st concrete pour. Hopefully the building erection will begin December 7 and by Christmas we should have the shell of a building completed. Over the Christmas holidays and into January, we hope to have volunteers working inside on the cooler, lights, plugs, etc. Let me know if you can help us!
You can make a difference while you shop Amazon Prime Day deals on October 13 & 14. Simply shop at smile.amazon.com/ch/95-1803687 or with AmazonSmile ON in the Amazon Shopping app and AmazonSmile donates to FoodHelp Food Bank. Add "FoodHelp Food Bank" as your chosen charity, and every time you shop at smile.amazon.com, a portion of your purchase will go towards feeding people in need in SoCal.
FoodHelp volunteers strive to help people instead of focusing on politics. As in the past, we acknowledge our elected officials help, support or donations to the food bank. These and similar boxes of food have been coming from the federal government, USDA and President Trump for several months now. We were recently informed that we may get food boxes for another few months along with a FEMA grant to help offset other expenses. Thank You, President Trump! It is so wonderful that federal dollars are not only helping farmers, but working their way down to our local level and especially, when they are doing so much good to people who are in need!
Blessed to have many in the community coming together to help every Saturday. This week MOD Pizza from Downey donated packaged meals to feed families in need in the community. #modpizza #downeycares #unleashingcompassion... #Volunteers See more

The Nourishing Neighbors program of the Albertsons Companies Foundation has generously made another donation to the FoodHelp Food Bank this year in the middle of this Coronavirus Pandemic! As our Neighbors continue coming to the food bank at a rate of 2-300% of last year, we are confident that there will be plenty of food for everyone. Thank you Christy Duncan Anderson, Anjana Bhattarai and all the wonderful employees at Albertsons and their affiliated stores for what you are doing. What a great organization to partner with and to do business with throughout our community!!!
