Alta Community

Starting from nothing, then building something great is a journey Alta knows well. As we start to rebuild and recover from these atrocities, we ask that you help Los Angeles! Your donation can provide relief and support to those affected. TOGETHER, we will make a difference! To make a difference TODAY we have started a donation page to help us keep this going.

2024 was a year! The reopening was special and we are very grateful to be serving the community again. As we think back on the year and what we accomplished we want to acknowledge everyone who helped us along the way. Thank you for everyone who wrote about our efforts, especially @eater_la and @latimesfood . We were so surprised and grateful to be included by @bill_addison and @jenn_harris_ in the @latimes #101bestrestaurants list! Thank you!! Thank you @sixdegreesla for launching our socials! Thank you to @heatherhuttca , @mhdcd8 , @wellsfargo for your financial support. Thank you to @yowatts_ysc for collaborating with us to find youth who we could train. Thank you to our team @altarestaurant , whose support was crucial in allowing us to reopen. We learned a lot in the first six months, from building relationships with other non-profits to operational procedures to fundraising strategy. Our foundation is very new, and we have a lot of work in front of us, and many challenges to solve. We are going to close @welocol for winter break while we raise more money, find an Executive Director, and build a strategy to expand our programming. In 2025 we want to grow our training, as well as adding food insecurity programs where we can feed more of the community. We’ll be back in a few months, stronger and more organized. Until then, happy new year to everyone! We hope that 2025 brings you peace and joy 💜💜💜 Love, Keith and Daniel

We are very excited to introduce @altacommunityla , a new non-profit dedicated to empowering communities through food. Our journey together started at @welocol in Watts in 2015. Even though it closed, and we opened @altarestaurant together in 2018, we always knew we’d somehow get back to LocoL again. We are going to re-open LocoL as a non-profit, operated by Alta Community. We will focus on vocational training and food insecurity in the community. Thank you to @breij and @latimesfood for helping us spread the word. LocoL was lighting in a bottle, a magical moment that will never happen again in the same way. Much love and respect to @chefroychoi , whose spirit of generosity and caring and his creativity helped make LocoL what it was. We are going to try and honor that spirit as we move back into the space. If you would like to support @altacommunityla please visit the link in bio. Thank you! Much 💜, Keith and Daniel
