Our story. Our community.
We’re a community of neighbors who believe that dignity, opportunity, and belonging should be within everyone’s reach.
A local beginning.
A shared purpose.
In 2018, what started as a simple desire to help people in our Los Angeles community grew into something much bigger. Donnell Farrar began reaching out to neighbors experiencing homelessness by providing meals, clothing, and connections to job opportunities.
That small beginning became Grab A Plate. With the support of local partners, volunteers, and a community that believes in making a difference, we've continued to grow our efforts beyond meeting immediate needs. Our focus is on creating opportunities, building relationships, and helping people take meaningful steps toward stability and independence.
GAP Pathways connects adults seeking transitional sober living with GAP Recovery, which handles housing applications, screening, and placement directly.
