Venice Family Clinic To Distribute Food to Those Disadvantaged by the Pandemic

In Partnership with UCLA Dining, Venice Family Clinic will distribute meals on Tuesday 5/15 at its Simms/Mann Health and Wellness Center in Santa Monica. The food distribution is intended to help its low-income patients struggling with food insecurity during the pandemic, says VFC in a press release.

"With fewer students on campus to feed and more people facing food insecurity, UCLA has called on the skills of its dining staff to help serve the community by preparing nearly 13,000 nutritious meals per week for Venice Family Clinic to distribute for free to its patients in need."

"The partnership provides four nutritious meals per week to each family member or individual, and each meal consists of about a pound of healthy food."

Venice Family Clinic's Simms/Mann Health and Wellness Center is at 2509 Pico Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90405. The food distribution begins at 8 a.m. Tuesday.
