Best Soup Kitchen Torrance Near Me

4worldlovers: Our founders are Ryan Rossow, Andrew Cormack and Max Karambles. We wanted to help people in our community who were hungry and didn't have enough to eat. We started volunteering by sorting food at a local soup kitchen. Then we decided to start a club at our high school. We invited our friends to join us and we started doing food drives, and working with more local organizations in our area. We found that there are a lot of families that depend on Food Banks and Soup kitchens to meet their daily requirements. According to the Los Angeles Department of Health Services, "food insecurity is a major public health issue that has reached crisis proportions in LA County. It can have significant negative impacts on health and well-being across the life span, including impairing growth and development among children, increasing risk for depression and other mental health conditions among adolescents, and contributing to malnutrition and worsened medical conditions in the elderly.
