An increasing number of families Casa de Peregrinos serves are homeless or in transitional housing. For them, a traditional food basket with staples such as rice and beans is of little help, and without access to refrigeration, spoilage is a big issue.

In response to this combination of unique needs, a program for homeless clients was developed by CdP, providing foods that need little preparation or cold storage. Homeless clients are eligible for either weekly or bi-weekly food distributions depending upon their financial circumstances, and receive items such as packaged meat, peanut butter, crackers, energy bars, snacks, cans with easy-open tops, juices and other drinks, and small quantities of baked goods and produce.

The Homeless Program also includes a monthly hot meal through the initiative of the owners of the Luchador Food Truck. Lucha 4 Hope serves between 100 and 150 clients each month. There is no cost to clients for this meal.
