“My family is very large and all my life we have struggled to find places to shop that are reasonably priced. During the pandemic it was more difficult than ever to find accessible essentials. We practically depended on the food boxes you provided. It was such a relief to find a place that had groceries that could last all of us for more than a week. Being able to walk in and have people helping find what you need was such a relief. Having over five children to shop for, it can be stressful remembering what to get, your workers were there to ease that struggle. In addition to the good prices on food, access to cheap health and beauty products are easier than ever to get. Your organization has helped not only my family, but many of our friends and relatives as well.”
Community Food Outreach
Western Eagle Foundation offers bulk food pallets (1200 pounds each) to registered nonprofit agencies and faith-based organizations, every Thursday, that show up at the Western Eagle Foundation drive-thru wherein pallets of food are loaded into their trucks, vans and cars to be delivered to outlying and rural communities to families in need of food in Riverside County and the unincorporated areas of Riverside County and Northern San Diego County.
1.9M pounds Transported Annually

Work Development
Western Eagle Foundation’s program for volunteer youth, young adults, seniors, individuals with disabilities, veterans, those in recovery programs or needed community service hours, enabling them to move forward toward their goals and increase their skill set in stocking, packing, and shelving, sorting, pricing, cashiering, customer service, work ethics and business policies and procedures.
Senior Day
Western Eagle Foundation offers Senior Discounts every Tuesday, up to 20% off on all food and other goods. Seniors may use their SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) cards to not only purchase food from the bargain store, but also take advantage of the customized food box. Because nutrition is so important, food boxes are usually filled with cereal, pasta and sauce, easy to eat canned vegetables and fruits, rice and beans, along with fresh bread, fruits and vegetables to be selected and used to make delicious meals. Additionally, a Medicare Benefits Consultant is usually on-site every Tuesday.
