What Hollywood Food Coalition does
Mission
Hollywood Food Coalition welcomes people to dinner each night. We rescue and redistribute food daily to other organizations. We care for our immediate community through our wellness program. We build community with and through our volunteers and community partnerships.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Community exchange - the program is designed to provide small to medium sized nonprofits throughout l.a. County with the food they need, so they can focus on their missions. The organization's careful recipient intake and feedback process, paired with its innovative food rescue inventory system, allows it to create a model where resources can be redirected more precisely to underserved communities. Hfc works with each organization to develop a deep understanding of their programs' needs, preferences, populations served, and constraints. The organization has ongoing conversations, often weekly, to improve offerings and ensure it is responsive to changing needs in the community. During 2024 the organization served 102 organizations and distributed over 2.4 million lbs of food.
$5,107,488 spentof which $4,373,464 as grants81% of program spendingThe community dinner - the community dinner program serves on average 250 hot nutritious meals every night of the year. In 2024 we served 98,000 meals. Volunteers and staff prepare multi-course meals that consist of meat and vegetable dishes, grains and starches, bread, green salads, fruit salads, desserts, and beverages. Sustainability is integral, with ingredients rescued by our community exchange. Hfc emphasizes nutritional, quality meals and affords our guests the dignity of choice between different dishes, including vegetarian and vegan options. The organization serves any hungry person, many of whom are unhoused, at risk of becoming unhoused, or low-income, with no exclusionary intake or prohibitive requirements that would turn them away. We are planning to move our dinner program (continued on sch. O) to a new location, which will be called refettorio la and include an improved program experience, such as seated table service and additional on-site services through our community wellness program. Approximately 9,500 volunteer hours contribute to the success of this program.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $2.6M to $3.6M (+41%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2018 1% · 2019 1% · 2020 8% · 2021 5% · 2022 8% · 2023 4% · 2024 8%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 44 funders, grant income rose $8k → $1.0M.
21 of 107 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 40% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of HOLLYWOOD FOOD COALITION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 107 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
HOLLYWOOD FOOD COALITION has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 17% of grant income, and it takes 8 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 8 funders to its left
62% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund HOLLYWOOD FOOD COALITION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 29% · 2020 41% · 2021 28% · 2022 22% · 2023 16% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
47% of HOLLYWOOD FOOD COALITION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 51% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
89% of HOLLYWOOD FOOD COALITION's grant income comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.6M arriving through sponsors registered in 14 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
