Overview

Mission

Charitable

What it reported doing in 2023

PROGRAM 1 We See You Kitchen - This is the food outreach program of the filing organization. Nearly every Saturday of the year 2023, the team prepared over 100 meals to take to the housed and unhoused residents of South Los Angeles. In about 5000 meals were served in 2023. Every Saturday the team went out, they offered a meal to anyone they encountered and offered prayer. As the team visited the same neighborhood every week, they became acquainted with many of the recipients. This allowed them the opportunity to witness positive changes in the recipients lives and circumstances. The main goal of We See You Kitchen is to let people know that they are seen and not forgotten. One way this is done is through the objective of providing freshly prepared meals and delivering them to desert-food neighborhoods, such as South Los Angeles.
