6am to 6pm 6am to 9pm 6am to 9pm

Padilla gave thanks for

the meals. Before the pan-

demic, the 46-year-old

worked in the hospitality in-

dustry staffing events such

as weddings. He hasn’t been

back to work since March.

Throughout these months,

the district has helped to

feed his family.

“I’m very appreciative. It

doesn’t have to be a New

York steak,” Padilla said. “I

was raised that way, that

[you] just be appreciative

for what you have.”

More than 1.5 million

meals were prepared for dis-

tribution Wednesday. The

grab-and-go centers usually

hand out two meals per per-

son a day, but the program

gave 15 meals per person

Wednesday, enough to last

through Sunday. The meal

packages included a

Thanksgiving dinner of tur-

key, mashed potatoes, green

beans, gravy and cranberry

sauce.

At South Gate High

School, staffers were pre-

pared to hand out at least

11,000 to 12,000 meals, said

Victor Ahumeda, the site co-

ordinator. On a typical week-

day, the school gives out

about 7,000 to 8,000 meals.

Ahumeda said demand

has dropped as businesses

began to reopen, but he ex-

pects to see more people

now that coronavirus cases

are increasing and new re-

strictions are being put in

place.

“I watch the news; it’s get-

ting worse, so definitely we’ll

be out here serving the com-

munity,” Ahumeda said. “We

do send emails, electronic

phone calls, that we’re open,

but I’m expecting a lot more

cars, a lot more people from

the community coming.”

Meals provided to chil-

dren when school is in ses-

sion are partially reim-

bursed by the government,

but meals provided to adults

are not. Also, meals pro-

vided when schools are on

break — as they are this

week — have historically not

been reimbursed, Beutner

said. So far the district has

spent $75 million on the pro-

gram, he said.

“We believe we should be

joined in this effort by the

city, by the county, by the

state, each of which have re-

ceived considerable dollars

through the CARES Act and

other federal relief programs

to support providing meals

to hungry adults, but we

have yet to be joined in this

effort,” Beutner said.

Over the last several

months, news has spread

that the school district gives

meals to adults regardless of

whether they have an L.A.

Unified student.

Maria Ramirez, 66, of

South Gate said she has

been coming to the school

two times a week since April

to get meals for her grand-

children.

Virginia Cordova, a 43-

year-old cosmetologist from

Lynwood, said she found out

about the grab-and-go pro-

gram from her sister-in-law.

On Wednesday, she and her

husband visited for the first

time to pick up meals for

themselves and their 12- and

13-year-old daughters. Both

she and her husband have

been unable to work since

March.

“It’s a relief for every fam-

ily because it’s some things

that you need at home,” she

said.

Marcia Moguel, a 30-

year-old South Gate resi-

dent who works with adults

with learning disabilities,

said she receives free meals

nearly every day. Moguel,

along with her mother, Mar-

cia Rodriguez, and her

brother, Angel Rodriguez,

an 11th-grade student at

South Gate High, took part

in a socially distanced tur-

key meal with Beutner.

“It is such a trying time

for people who are losing

their jobs or going through

unemployment, are going

through their own medical

issues and financial issues,”

Moguel said. “This is just

one less burden, one less

thing that they have to think

about.”
