The Project Angel Food Program is founded by Marianne Williamson as an outreach program of the Los Angeles Center for Living, which helps people with life-threatening illnesses.
Project Angel Food's kitchen and offices are located in our building on renowned Vine Street in the heart of Hollywood, between Santa Monica Boulevard and Melrose Boulevard, at the corner of Barton Avenue and Vine.
Project Angel Food's main office is open from 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday - Friday.
Our Kitchen operates from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday - Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Sunday.
Our professional kitchen, a former costume design shop, is equipped with the latest equipment and tools, gives us ample expansion capacity as the need for our meal service grows.
Our central location offers easy access to the many volunteers who make our work possible. It also provides our delivery drivers close proximity to freeway arteries, enabling us to efficiently serve clients throughout all 4,700 square miles of Los Angeles County.
Our vital food and nutrition services, including medically tailored meals and nutrition education and counseling to our clients, families and care providers, help underserved people throughout LA County who are too sick to shop or cook for themselves. This year almost 2,100 people, ranging in age from 19 to 104, received service. Three-quarters of our clients are at or below poverty level.
All of our clients need to watch their caloric and nutrient intake for one reason or another. Some need to gain weight and others need to maintain or lose weight. We have established more than 20 different menus to address each client's specific needs. Some meals are lower in sodium and potassium others are high in complex carbohydrates all with the objective to help our at-risk neighbors fight the good fight.
