Love Yourself 2023

Self-love is a radical act, and it takes radical acts to end the cycle of homelessness. That’s why on Valentine's Day, we invite the families we serve to an event centered on self-love activities.

At our Love Yourself event this year, families were treated with flowers and self-care products provided by our generous partners. Participant Media provided 50 wellness kits to each family that included: yoga mats and blocks, candles, gift cards, nail polish (all kinds of shades), face masks, sweet treats, and more! Families also picked up sunglasses from our partner Goodr; jewelry by JoJoRings; eye pillows from EKA Love Wellness, make up from NuMe, and skincare products from Josie Maran. Netflix and LA Works donated hygiene kits and literacy kits.

We are so grateful to our partners for making our families feel extra special with their donations! Thanks to our passionate volunteers, our families also enjoyed manicures, reiki, sound baths, and yoga sessions. Students from IPSJ Life Energy Institute provided massages. For some attendees, it was the first massage they had ever had!

We also want to thank our special guests for making the day truly memorable by sharing their special talents. The San Dimas Blue Roses dance team and musician Mariemme performed, inspiring and entertaining the nearly 60 families in attendance.

Take a look at all the fun we had!
