About this organization
Mission
The mission of Family Assistance Ministries (FAM) is to assist those in need in Orange County with resources for food, shelter, and personalized supportive counsel and aid, helping clients bridge the gap from dependency to self-sufficiency.
About
Hunger Prevention Food Pantry: Emergency and ongoing nutritious food assistance is provided to families with children, seniors, low-income military families, homeless college students and individuals who are poor and hungry. This food is part of their overall financial plan toward self-sufficiency. This is made possible by our 7-days a week, fresh rescues from local grocery stores and farms, USDA food, Starbucks Foodshare, Second Harvest, OC Food Bank's senior commodities, and food donations from community partners such as churches, businesses, civic organizations, schools, scouts, and individuals. 30,631 hungry people sought FAM as a food source last year through 126,783 encounters. 1,355 local volunteers make this and other FAM programs possible. Food donations are distributed at FAM's main Resource Center in San Clemente as well as at our three satellite offices, three senior centers, Saddleback Community College and at Camp Pendleton. FAM also partners with various local organizations to further distribute food and personal care items to even more low-income families and individuals in need of assistance. Clothing, children's diapers, pet food, toiletries and other personal care items are also redistributed.
