Homeless children, a heartbreaking reality, are young individuals without a stable place to call home. Often living in temporary shelters, cars, or on the streets, they face immense challenges in accessing basic necessities, education, and a safe environment. Reasons for their homelessness vary, including family financial struggles, domestic issues, and lack of affordable housing. The impact on these children is profound, affecting their well-being and future prospects. Addressing child homelessness demands urgent attention to provide support, stability, and opportunities that every child deserves for a brighter future.
In the effort to make a difference in the lives of homeless children, organizations like Stand Up for Kids are taking a vital role. By offering support, guidance, and resources, Stand Up for Kids aims to uplift these vulnerable young lives, working towards a society where every child has a chance to thrive despite their circumstances.
Marking a significant milestone, Stand Up for Kids is excited to announce their upcoming fundraising event, the 20-Year Anniversary Gala. This event not only celebrates two decades of dedicated service to homeless youth but also invites supporters to come together for an unforgettable evening of impact, compassion, and contributions to further the organization’s mission.
Join us to celebrate 20 years of serving at-risk and homeless youth in Orange County. Our 6th annual Gala, hosted by 24 Carrots Catering & Events, Southern California’s premier catering and events company, will bring excitement and energy to compliment the heartfelt words of sponsors, donors, staff, and volunteers who make all of this possible. Our Gala will be held at The Colony House in Anaheim, CA.
Help us reach our $200,000 fundraising goal which will support all areas of programming that are not covered by city or county grants. These funds will ensure youth continue to have access to emergency housing, basic furnishing, all basic needs, school supplies, and healthy groceries.
Sponsorship opportunities are available. For more info, email [email protected].
