About Food Finders
Food Finders Inc’s clearest recent pattern is scale centered on food access: four of its largest grants went to FEED THE HUNGRY across 2023 and 2024, including awards of $31,673,655, $27,262,620, $26,612,154, and $22,744,040. That concentration suggests a funder built around large, repeat distributions rather than a scattered portfolio of small awards. The foundation’s stated purpose is to provide food and connections to life-stabilizing resources when neighbors need them most, and its grant record aligns with that direct-service approach. Beyond the flagship FEED THE HUNGRY awards, Food Finders Inc also funded a broad set of local hunger-relief organizations in California in 2025. Ministerios Cristianos Faro De Luz received $3,356,469 to provide food for people in need, while Food Finders Warehouse received $2,318,392 for the same purpose. Other recipients such as United Hands Multipurpose Center, Helping Hands Society of Los Angeles, and Hands of Mercy Encounter show a network of community-based distributors rather than a single-service model.
What Food Finders Funds
Food Finders Inc gives most often for food distribution and emergency food assistance. In 2025, it awarded $2,136,804 to United Hands Multipurpose Center in Anaheim to provide food for people in need, and $1,915,453 to Helping Hands Society of Los Angeles for the same purpose. Those grants point to a delivery model built around local partners that can move groceries and meals quickly. The foundation also supports community organizations serving specific neighborhoods. El Sereno Bicentennial Committee in Los Angeles received $1,013,027, and Crossroads Christian Community Center Compton received $676,869, each to provide food for people in need. Smaller awards to Shepherd's Pantry in Glendora, Love Community Outreach in Santa Ana, and Long Beach Community Table in Long Beach reinforce a geography of neighborhood-based food access rather than a single institution. Its recent grant list also includes fiscal sponsorship distribution through Farmlink, which received $2,534,653 in 2023.
How Food Finders Gives
Food Finders Inc’s recent grant sizes are very large: the 25th percentile is $22,744,040, the median is $26,612,154, and the 75th percentile is $27,262,620. That distribution is tightly clustered at the high end, with a few smaller operating-style awards outside the flagship feed-the-hungry pattern. The record shows repeated support to the same recipient across multiple years, especially FEED THE HUNGRY in 2023 and 2024. It is classified as a regular funder rather than a DAF, does not fund individuals, and does not make program-related investments. Unsolicited applications are not accepted through the active Agency Partner Program.
