Administered through Community Services Resource Corporation in Los Angeles, this fund benefits food banks and food pantries throughout Southern California. Since its inception, the KLOS Food Bank has raised over $2.2 million, which, through matching funds, government grants and leveraging, has had the purchasing power to buy $44 million worth of food and personal grooming items for homeless and hungry men, women, and children. The money contributed to the KLOS Food Bank Fund annually helps to sustain these food banks and food pantries throughout the entire year.
