Heart of Compassion 501(c)(3) provides many services as part of its mission to demonstrate love-both spiritually and physically through the distribution of life essentials for the total person. We distribute to 100 organizations such as food banks, shelters, veterans, seniors, city and school programs throughout the Southern California area. We do this by providing fresh fruits, vegetables and other nutritional foods, and when available furniture and clothing to the less fortunate. In 2011-2012 Heart of Compassion 501(c)(3) provided $33.3 million dollars of food and merchandise all at no cost.
