Project Angel Food contributors can be recognized for their support of one of our city’s most beloved and effective non-profits, with a Star on the Path of Angels.

The unveiling included a cake cutting ceremony and a champagne toast.

Since its inception, twenty eight years ago, Project Angel Food has provided more than 10.5 million meals, free of charge to people living with critical illness, and the kitchen and staff continues to prepare over 11,000 meals a week. Over the years, Project Angel Food has expanded its initial mission of serving people living with HIV/AIDS to include medically tailored meals to men and women living with cancer, kidney disease, congestive heart failure and diabetes.

The mission at Project Angel Food remains the same, to feed and nourish the sick as they battle debilitating illness, by delivering healthy meals throughout Los Angeles County. Many clients are living well below the poverty line and Project Angel Food is their lifeline, filling a vital need in all communities. The client base is testimony to this fact, 40% Latino, 30% African-American, 21% Caucasian, 5% Asian and 4& other.
