Do you enjoy working with positive people & making new friends?

Are you ready to make a difference in Los Angeles serving our unhoused neighbors?

Why: We'll be providing meals and sharing resources to our unhoused neighbors by partnering with local service providers. Your presence and volunteering will help create a welcoming, supportive, and safer environment for our community.

Who: Our mission is to confront and solve the problems creating homelessness, while also meeting urgent needs. With these types of events, our unhoused neighbors will get some urgent needs met, which everyone deserves. When we work with fellow volunteers to meet the urgent needs of people living outside, our entire community benefits.

What to Expect:

Join the Better Angel group at the resource center. Look for our light blue T-shirts and our light blue sign
