Commonwealth Elementary School
Our neighborhood public elementary school offers opportunities for FCCLA members and friends to affect a student body of some 850 youngsters with financial assistance and other efforts.
Union Rescue Mission
This historic Christian mission offers hope and healing to the homeless downtown. Our financial assistance is augmented by hands-on volunteering.
Hope-Net
Hope-Net was founded by 12 area congregations to address hunger among the homeless and poor in our community. Donations of canned or packaged food and staples placed in the church narthex throughout the year are delivered to a local Hope-Net pantry for distribution.
Kids-Net LA
Kids-Net LA’s mission is to bolster the well-being of abused or neglected children now in foster or dependency care. Kids-Net provides a week at Cedar Lake Camp each summer for kids aged 7 to 11. In the fall, it will launch an in-town Saturday Teen Academy for aged 12 to 15. FCCLA now provides financial support and will be asked to recruit volunteers to these programs.
Downtown Women's Center
First Church contributes annually to this nationally-recognized service to women of Los Angeles. The Center provides permanent housing and personal support to 71 formerly homeless residents and health services to walk-in women during the day.
The DWC contact is Allison Bamberg, Volunteer Program Associate, at volunteer@DWCweb.org or 213.680.0600.
