Little Tokyo Senior Nutrition Services (formerly known as Koreisha Chushoku Kai) started on April 2, 1976 as a result of concern for the welfare of Little Tokyo senior citizens. Throughout the years, this program has helped participants to keep in touch with one another, promote healthy living and foster a sense of community.
LTSNS serves over one hundred meals a day, five times a week (Monday through Friday) at our lunch site conveniently located next to the Little Tokyo Towers living facility.
While many senior citizens are on fixed or limited incomes, each meal we provide only costs only $3.50.
In addition to lunches served on site, we also provide approximately 80 home-delivered meals to immobilized seniors in the area.
