We are so very grateful to all of you, for making 2024 so very bright for so many youth and families in Los Angeles who needed some light, hope and enrichment in their lives...

The Children's Lifesaving Foundation has been SO very busy this holiday season! From hosting toy drives throughout Los Angeles with wonderful community partners, to gift distributions with our partner agencies and hosting corporate volunteer and individual holiday volunteer opportunities at SNAP Inc and Capital One, to organizing another, terrific Holiday Bash on December 14th in Santa Monica for 90 youth from LA's BEST, our Project Angel Wings Holiday Program has been going FULL blast! CLF was also able to distribute checks and gifts once again this season to some of the awesome familes in our Vita Network, went to the Los Angeles Ballet's Nutcracker performance not once but TWICE (through our great friends at Create Now Arts-thank you!) and overall, had another incredible season of our Project Angel Wings Holiday Program...Our volunteer crew was as AMAZING as ever (THANK YOU-Suzanne, CLEM (!), Kramer, Hannah, Dylan, Alyssa, Janine (& co!) Cathy & Annie, Claudia & Mark, Dea (and family, & friends!) and THANK YOU to our truly extraordinary friends at Capital One-the amazing Ambassadors at the Capital One Cafe in Santa Monica, who let us set-up our Santa's Workshop, once again this year! Sean, our Program Director, truly rocked it out as well this season, and kudos to him, and his team of tireless volunteers! (Shout-out to our dearest community partners at JAKK's Pacific for coming through, once again, with another amazing donation of toys!) Thank you as well to: SNAP Inc., Action-Agape, Swinger’s Diner, RQ Agency, Northwestern Mutual, PJT Partners, FTI Consulting, Girl Scout Troop #3561, Spruzzo’s Beach Cafe, Capital One, Rite Aid Healthy Futures, the Weinstein Family, Clem, Suzanne, Mark Lederkramer, and all of YOU!!!
As you all many of you know well, our programs are geared toward the process of 'transformation.'
The CLF aims to facilitate this through wholesome and positive outdoor camp and field trip experiences, educating the youth we serve on how to be stewards of our natural enviroment, providing crucial support to their families in emergency situations, distributing college scholarships and mentoring to teens in our programs, and creating great holiday experiences each Holiday Season, as we wrote about, above...Y0u can also see more and follow on INSTAGRAM, right here... Your donation, in any amount, will ensure that our programs will be running strong, well into 2025...We are getting really close! But we need YOU to make this match happen...
We are wishing you and your wonderful families a truly specatcular New Year, one filled with health, peace and great personal happiness...Thank you so much, once again!
#weloveyou!
