Since we have our first major fundraising event of our 2025-26 season coming up on November 13th, Journey Through the Pages, we’d like to share with you about where our fundraising efforts will go this season.

For more information on this event (it’s our 3rd Literary Luncheon, which are very popular) and to purchase tickets, please visit www.lascandalistas.org/event/journey/ Ticket price will increase after 8:00 pm 10/20 and sales close 11/3, don’t wait!

Las Candalistas has been dedicated to benefiting children and the environment in the South Bay of Los Angeles County since 1967. This season, after an intensive application process, we selected 10 philanthropies to support for that season. Why 10? Because there are so many philanthropies in our community that need assistance. We had 26 philanthropes apply for funding this season and it was very difficult to narrow it down. They are all deserving and we wish we could help all of them.

We are thrilled to announce the 10 philanthropies net proceeds of all our 2025-26 fundraising efforts will go to:
Boys & Girls Clubs of the Los Angeles Harbor
Community's Child
Family Promise of Los Angeles
Marine Mammal Care Center Los Angeles
Providence TrinityCare Foundation (Hospice for Children)
Rainbow Services DV
Sage
South Bay Children's Health Center
South Coast Botanic Garden
Toberman Neighborhood Center

Thank you for your support, we can’t do what we do without you, and we hope to see you at Journey Through the Pages!

At our October General Meeting we had the pleasure of a visit from Sage, one of our 10 selected philanthropies for this season. This is our first year supporting Sage and we are thrilled! We so enjoyed the presentation by Kathi Colli, Executive Director and Jill Perry, Grant Writer, and the chance to get to know them better.

Sage is a non-profit dedicated to providing free, on-campus mental health therapy for students in Southern California. Their core mission is to break down significant barriers to accessing mental health support, including cost, transportation, and stigma by placing qualified, post-master’s level therapists directly in schools.

Las Candalistas is dedicated to bettering the lives and future of children in the South Bay and Sage fits right in with our mission. We look forward to a future relationship with them!

You can help philanthropies like Sage by attending our November 13th Fall Fundraiser, Journey Through the Pages, at the Los Verdes Golf Course. It’s our 3rd Literary Luncheon! Includes lunch, discussions by 4 local authors, shopping, silent auction, and much more. Complimentary valet parking! Ticket price increases after October 20th, don’t wait!
