Trinity kids Care

Providence TrinityCare Hospice Foundation has compassionately entered the lives of individuals faced with the realities of suffering, loss, death, and grief, to offer expert care and education, while respecting each person’s choices, values, and beliefs, for more than 40 years. They take pride in the fact that they never turn anyone away due to their ability to pay.

Community’s Child

We proudly support the Health Bags program. This school food delivery program was implemented in 2014 in response to the finding that 27% of the school age children attending Community’s Child Torrance Memorial Health & Wellness Event tested positive for anemia. The program targets children in the South Bay that are food insecure and in need of nutritional assistance. As a result, anemia rates have been reduced to 4%!

Boys & Girls Clubs of the LA Harbor

True to their mission since 1937, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the LA Harbor help young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens. They achieve this through a commitment to quality programs and service sin an environment that is safe, nurturing, and inspiring. We support their College Bound program which has had a success rate of 99% of graduates going to college every fall.

Family Promise of the South Bay logo

Family Promise of the South Bay

Founded in 2015, Family Promise of the South Bay provides a trauma-informed shelter program that keeps families together while helping them build long-term stability. We welcome all family types and focus on children’s well-being, unity, and hope during times of homelessness. In addition, our free six-week Summer Learning Camp offers K–8 students hands-on academics, social-emotional learning, and joy, while giving parents time to pursue work and stability.

Marine Mammal Care Center logo

Marine Mammal Care Center

The Marine Mammal Care Center Los Angeles rescues and rehabilitates sick and injured sea lions, seals, and elephant seals, giving them a second chance at life in the ocean. As the only facility of its kind in Los Angeles County, MMCCLA also provides free public viewing and educational programs, inspiring more than 24,000 visitors each year to care for our ocean. Support helps us treat hundreds of marine mammals annually and teach thousands of students about conservation and protecting marine life.

Rainbow Services logo

Rainbow Services

Rainbow Services empowers survivors of domestic violence with shelter, housing, legal support, and education to help families move beyond trauma toward safety and stability. Through trauma-informed programs for children and prevention education for youth, we strengthen resilience and foster lasting change in our community.

Sage SoCal logo

Sage SoCal

Sage SoCal breaks down barriers to care by providing free, school-based mental health therapy that helps students thrive both personally and academically. With most of our budget devoted directly to therapists, we deliver essential, consistent support to thousands of students across Southern California.

South Bay Children’s Health Center logo

South Bay Children’s Health Center

South Bay Children’s Health Center delivers vital dental and mental health care to underserved children, teens, and young adults across the South Bay. Through comprehensive treatment, prevention, and education, we empower youth to overcome barriers and thrive in health and wellness.

South Coast Botanic Garden logo

South Coast Botanic Garden

South Coast Botanic Garden is a vital resource where nature, education, and community converge, offering exhibitions, programs, and plant collections that inspire environmental awareness and stewardship. With free and reduced-access initiatives, the Garden ensures families, students, and underserved communities can enjoy nature’s benefits as a sanctuary for well-being and learning. From school field trips to the SOAR Butterfly exhibit and the upcoming Children and Family Garden, we spark curiosity, connection, and conservation in the next generation.
