Food on Foot
Food on Foot is a Hollywood based nonprofit that has been helping our homeless and low-income neighbors since 1996 with food, full-time jobs, permanent housing, and lifeskills education. We distribute meals to approximately 200 homeless and low-income people every Sunday. In addition to distributing food, we have a successful jobs & housing program for high-functioning (low acuity) homeless men and women. Each of our participants must perform a random act of kindness to enter the Work for Food program each week. This way, our clients learn that giving back is more powerful than receiving. Additionally, participants clean the streets of Hollywood, and before COVID-19, they were also cleaning the Hollywood Farmers' Market weekly. Several of the jobs we place our participants in are in the Hollywood area as well. Graduates from this program leave the streets with a full-time job, a fully furnished apartment, and a lifeskills education. Equally important, they leave with the confidence of knowing they CAN make it on their own. 85% of the people we find jobs for are still in those jobs one year later.
