'He provided the food and the time and got caught cooking over 24 hours in the middle of the storm last week,' Grace Ancheta, director of development for Hope the Mission, told ABC News.
Ancheta said that Grohl also"stayed to serve his food to all of our participants at the Trebek Center shelter" in the northwest San Fernando Valley.
As Grohl cooked food for more than 450 dinners to distribute to several Hope the Mission shelters, chief executive officer and founder Ken Craft and Rowan Vansleve, mission president and chief financial officer, kept busy as well, running 350 miles from Las Vegas to Los Angeles in an effort to fundraise the $350,000 needed to open their next three family shelters.
Formerly the Hope of the Valley Rescue Mission, the organization is spread out over 17 facilities with 170 family and youth beds, 138 emergency beds, 818 interim housing beds, 13 recovery beds and 30 safe parking spots. The faith-based nonprofit organization -- which was founded in 2009 and works to prevent, reduce and eliminate poverty, hunger and homelessness -- offers both immediate and long-term assistance.
"Our services are grounded in a deep respect for the dignity inherent in each human being," the group's mission statement reads.
