Mission Statement

Living Waters-West LA dba A Child’s Dream-CA (ACDCA). Our Mission: Helping to meet essential needs through practical means; one man, one household, one street, one community at a time. A Child’s Dream-CA, is a grassroots community based 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization servicing counties of Southern California. Since its formation in 2006, ACDCA has offered a spark of hope to over 20,000 children and their families through the ACDCA programs and services.

Description

At ACDCA, we hand families facing hardship a "hand-up," not a hand-out. We empower them with essential resources and walk alongside them on their journey to self-sufficiency, fostering dignity and lasting stability.

Programs and Activities:

  • Pop-up Events: Throughout the year, we bring relief and hope by distributing blankets, hygiene products, books, and socks to families struggling to meet basic needs.
  • Back-to-School Outreach: With a focus on eliminating "the difficult choice between food and essentials," we ensure over 1000 children start the school year equipped with backpacks filled with supplies and hygiene products.
  • Holiday Outreach: During the holiday season, we bring joy and provide hope to over 1200 children and their families with toys, food, hygiene products, and a sense of community.
  • Resource Fairs: We go beyond immediate relief by collaborating with community partners to offer valuable resources and information at our outreach events, connecting families to a brighter future.
  • Own Your Future Career Exploration and Mentoring: This groundbreaking program empowers high school students and adults by opening doors to career possibilities through workshops, mentoring, and guidance. We help individuals discover their potential, navigate career paths, and achieve their aspirations. Dare 2 Dream!
