Donations of Koia protein shakes have been made to several locations across Los Angeles, including Coast Plaza Hospital, UCLA Westwood and Venice Fire Departments, and more. Their mission is to fuel medical staff and firefighters that are working overtime in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. If you know of a front line location in need of aid in the Greater Los Angeles Area, San Diego, or NYC, email Diane DiLorenzo at donations@drinkkoia.com for consideration.
