Cal Flame, a Pomona manufacturer of high-end barbecues, grills and fireplaces, has become the principal donor to the Garden Project, a community garden built for homeless people in downtown Los Angeles.

The project, created by the Weingart Center Association, a non-profit that helps homeless men and women, consists of an open space upgraded to a park for the homeless people of Skid Row.

Cal Flame is owned by Lloyds Material Supply Co. Inc., which also makes the Cal Spas line of outdoor furniture. Donated were a modified outdoor burner, stainless steel refrigerator and two 30-inch steel doors worth a total of about $1,800.

“We wanted to create a peaceful sanctuary in Skid Row to provide the homeless with the healing power of nature to assist them in transforming their lives,” said Courtney Salas, the company’s public relations manager.
