Annually, we host a community service event called the Backpack Drive & Family Fun Fest (BD&FFF). It’s a family friendly, fun-filled, block party style event with music, games and food...best of all, it’s FREE! This event is not just a day of fun, it serves as a pathway to "Be a Blessing" by assisting parents in offsetting the costs associated with preparing their students to return to school. RLP is committed to providing each school age child one brand new, supply filled backpack, outfit (top and bottom) and a pair of shoes to return to school. This year we anticipate serving 500+ youth prepare for the 2019/20 academic school year in order to prepare for the (BD&FFF) we will be host an inventory day. We will need 20 volunteers to help us inspect, sort, count, inventory and pack the backpacks, school supplies, clothing and shoes we receive before the event.

Description
Rays of Light Philanthropic, Inc. (RLP) is a Non-Profit Organization that will provide basic needs items to low-income children & youth, specifically those that are homeless and living in foster care. In response to the growing number of foster care and displaced children and youth, December 13, 2008, Rays of Light Philanthropic hosted our first CHRISTmas "Be a Blessing" Gala at our home in Chatsworth, CA. In 2009 we applied for our Doing Business As (DBA) and began operating as a Sole Proprietorship. December 2013, we received our Non-Profit Status under section 501(c)(3). RLP is a corporation, owned and operated by Christopher and Elaine Ray.
RLP exists to improve the quality of life for underprivileged (specifically foster care and homeless) children and youth; with an emphasis on those that are in foster care and homeless. RLP specializes in the collection of basic needs items (i.e., clothing, undergarments, toiletries, backpacks, school supplies and toys) reducing the financial burden on the caregivers. We accomplish this goal hosting family-focused events that mobilize our community members. Our primary goal is to create awareness around the pervasive issue of foster care and homelessness among children and youth. Our secondary goal is educating our community on ways they can get involved and invest in the lives of children...our future.
