Los Angeles Business Journal Awards Luncheon: Kevin & Mare Wachs with grandson Caden, son Joe Wachs & daughter-in-law Stephanie Wachs, team members Lauri Reimer, Heather Hatch, and board members Rod & Fabienne Berman.

A Message from the Founders…

Some great things are happening at the Get Together Foundation. We were nominated and became a finalist for the non-profit & corporate citizenship award given by the Los Angeles Business Journal. The team had a great time venturing downtown to the historic Biltmore Hotel to attend the awards luncheon on Wednesday, April 19th. It was quite an amazing event, and we were all proud to be part of it. We were in the company of several dozen non-profit organizations who all make a difference in the community. A few other things to report… we’re super excited to announce our July 3rd Charity Event, and we hope to see many of you there. Details are unfolding but please mark your calendars now. It’s going to be here before we know it! We’re also very happy to report that GTF’s 3 main programs are all in full swing. Monthly meal delivery to North Valley Caring Services thanks to Mare & Charlie, hand-wash kits continue to be distributed to The Midnight Mission and other homeless service agencies, and our wonderful music program, “Together in Tune” is rounding the end of another school semester. By the way, as we expand this program will be in need of more music teachers. If you’re interested please contact Lauri Reimer at lauri@gettogetherfoundation.com. I know we don’t say this enough, but thanks to all of you for your continued support. –Kevin & Mare Wachs

Thanks to our wonderful volunteers!

Thank you, Veronica Prado for organizing your group to make hand-wash kits for us. (MorrrHeart Services Aff. of Tri-Counties Regional.

A few of our volunteers spend time at GTF headquarters preparing the hand-wash kit supply boxes to go out. This is Deb Alva, her daughter, and Greg Harvey hard at work.

Each finished box contains 25 individual kits ready to be handed out to unsheltered homeless folks.

Another big thanks to our friends at The Midnight Mission for picking up 1800 hand-wash kits last month. From our door to the streets.
