Through the power of music and kindness,
we help those in need.
MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR OUR MARCH 20TH TELETHON
It's not over. Although there's a bright light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel, many unfortunate souls lie damaged in its wake. Tens of thousands of regular laborers remain unemployed with no immediate hope of regaining their previous jobs. Although optimistic, we remain somewhat frightened and cautious. We're also a bit emotionally scarred from a year without many of the small pleasures we are accustomed to, and in need of. We’re doing another live stream concert on March 20th that will benefit COVID Relief as, hopefully, a last act of repairing what the pandemic has broken. Please join us.

LA Care continues to support GTF's Hand-Wash Kit Program!!! And we are so grateful.
In March 2020, when COVID-19 the limitations for public safety were imposed, GTF started the Hand-Wash Kit program and reached out to LAHSA (Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority) to deliver them to the unsheltered homeless living on the streets and in encampments throughout Los Angeles. We are proud to report that from April through December, GTF has distributed 20,500 hand-wash kits containing bottled purified water, hand soap, paper towels, and an information sheet with public services to the following agencies in Los Angeles County:

LAHSA, The Midnight Mission, Hope of the Valley Rescue Mission, San Fernando Valley Community Mental Health Center, Pico Union Project, Malibu Food Bank, New Friends Homeless Center, PATH, Hollywood Homeless Youth Partnership, Covenant House, My Friend’s Place, LGBT Center, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, and more, as well as serving homebound individuals through Project Angel Food. We have literally serviced thousands of homeless folks, especially those not near public hand-wash stations. Our program continues to grow as more and more agencies know about our work.
THANKS TO OUR VOLUNTEERS...
The program is going strong largely from the help of our volunteers from Tierra del Sol, the Chatsworth and Northridge Kiwanis Clubs, the Chatsworth Key Club, Next Door neighborhood watch, and several individuals who volunteer on a regular basis to assemble kits.
