Give Hope...right NOW! The CLF Step Forward Family Emergency Fund

My Dear Friends,

Letter from our Founder:

We truly hope you are all well and safe.

We are all journeying through this COVID-19 pandemic, and we are personally working hard to continue to support the children and families in our Vita Network Program at this very crucial time.

It is our immediate goal to assist our most recently adopted families (25 of them) with direct financial assistance, as well as grocery gift cards to supermarkets, Costco and Target.

Please consider making your donation today to our CLF Step Forward Family Fund Drive.

One gesture like this that you make today could have a resounding impact, and could mean a week’s worth of groceries, or more, for a mom, teens and children. (And we have an AMAZING UPDATE & some GREAT news! The Open Hearts Foundation (Co-founded by Jane Seymour) is giving CLF a $25,000 Matching Grant! PLEASE HELP US MATCH THIS GREAT GIFT)

This is such a hard time for us to ask, but such a critical time for these families to receive. Your donation today could truly be a life-changing one. 100% of all donations are tax-deductible.

We are happy to report that our Camp for All Program is scheduled to begin on June 15th with 350 LAUSD students from Telfair Elementary (which has the highest percentage of actual homeless youth in LAUSD) and surrounding Pacoima schools at our Wilderness Camps at King Gillette Ranch. An additional 650 at-risk youth and homeless families will also attend our Surf Camps at Zuma Beach in Malibu beginning July 2nd until mid-August.

We are so looking forward to seeing all these wonderful children this summer, and this will be our 27th year of running our Summer Camp for All Program.

We love and thank you all so much for always being such great friends, and supporters of the CLF’s work. Thank you all so much again.

My heart and prayers are with all of you. Please remember that we are all in this together, more than ever, ever before…

Our sincerest gratitude, thanks and love,

Maria D’Angelo-The Children’s Lifesaving Foundation
