Project Angel Food is Los Angeles’ leading non-profit provider of nutritional meals and counseling for people living with serious illnesses, such as cancer, heart disease, HIV/AIDS, and renal failure. Borne in response to the AIDS crisis, today Project Angel Food provides its vital services for people suffering across a spectrum of critical diagnoses and reflecting the county’s diverse demographics. Informed by our belief in ‘food as medicine’, our healthy meals are medically tailored by our registered dieticians and chefs to meet the nutritional care required by our clients’ specific medical condition. Our clients, homebound and often living alone, are unable to shop and cook for themselves, and rely on Project Angel Food as a vital lifeline of nourishment and hope. Our drivers deliver more than food; they carry the message to those in greatest need that someone cares. Since our inception in 1989, Project Angel Food has delivered almost 9 million meals to over 15,000 people, a testament to the Agency’s ability to implement and sustain a successful home-delivered food and nutrition program over the last 25 years.

Big Sunday connects people through helping. We provide a wide variety of opportunities and projects that bring people together to improve lives, build community and give people a sense of belonging. We offer more than 2000 ways for people to help out, every year. And there’s all kinds of ways to help. You can: -Volunteer by working up a sweat doing manual labor. -Pitch in by offering some special skill you have. -Help out by spending time with someone who’d enjoy your company. -Give away gently used stuff like clothes, books, sports equipment or furniture. -Buy new stuff like food, school supplies, or socks and underwear. -Donate money to help in all kinds of ways. -These are all great and important ways to help, and all of them are always needed. One more thing: We have participants of all ages, backgrounds and abilities. They come from all kinds of different neighborhoods, and we do work in all kinds of different neighborhoods, too. People take part in Big Sunday projects through schools, faith groups, businesses, clubs, as families and as individuals. Whoever you are, whatever you do, we can use your help. You see, at Big Sunday, we feel there’s lots of work to be done – but we get so much more accomplished, and have so much more fun, when we do it all together.

The Dream Builders Project was established in Los Angeles, CA on October 10, 2013. We were created with one plan and one goal in mind, to give back. Originating from real estate development company, Dahan Properties/Prime Five Homes, The Dream Builders Project has adopted the development firm’s commitment to community growth. The Dream Builders Project strives to provide for charities, non-profits, organizations, and foundations dedicated to making the world a better place- one community at a time.

Thus far we have donated to Habitat for Humanity, Restore LA, The Polaris Project, Team Fox, LATO, Lupus LA and The Lazarex Cancer Foundation.

The Dream Builders Project sees no limit to giving back and as long as there is a demand for help, we will deliver.
The Musicians Foundation of Los Angeles is a non-profit, charitable organization providing financial help to professional musicians in the Los Angeles area. Making my living as a professional musician I know firsthand how difficult it can be to put food on the table. I saw a need for a charitable organization that could help musicians in financial distress, so Musicians Foundation of Los Angeles was created and founded in 2007. Our hope and mission is to help professional musicians who are struggling to maintain their dignity, provide them greater independence, and ease some of their financial burden.

Media arts include the work of artists who use communications technology – such as video, film, web and mobile phone devices. Media arts are constantly changing, as artists seize and personalize new and commercial technologies. The work in Freewaves’ events ranges from animation and documentaries to installations and websites. It can be shown anywhere: in a window, projected on a screen or wall, in a club, on a street corner, in a theater, media center or library and, most often, across from a comfy couch. Freewaves’ 2011-2014 project, OUT THE WINDOW, presents hundreds of artists’ videos to L.A. Metro’s 1 million daily bus riders on Transit TV. Creative videos use open-ended, humorous, relatable and questioning strategies to approach viewers with vital images. 2000 buses each have 2 screens and speakers inside. After every video an evocative question about the videos appears with a phone number to text responses. Out-the-window.org shows both the responses and videos, extended by Facebook and Twitter. 500+ riders evaluated the program very positively. Health is the upcoming theme in collaboration with community health clinics, Covered California and 211.
