Jimmy Kimmel wants to help feed those in need.
The late-night host announced Tuesday that his show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" had formed a special local food bank in Los Angeles, formed in response to millions being set to be affected by the loss or reduction of their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits amid the government shutdown.
"Cutting SNAP benefits creates uncertainty for American children, seniors and families," the announcement reads. "To support our community members in need, we're starting a donation center in our Hollywood backlot to benefit the (Los Angeles Food Bank) & (the St. Joseph Center)."
People in the area are encouraged to donate food – especially nut butters, protein bars and whole grain pastas – to the "Jimmy Kimmel Live Big Beautiful Food Bank
