Hi folx,

As many of you know, My Friend’s Place has been close to our hearts for years. Each of us was lucky enough to work there at one point in our lives, and the young people we met and the community we built have never left us. That’s why we’re coming back together for Friend Fest—a community-driven fundraiser in support of My Friend’s Place and the incredible young people they serve.

Every year, more than 1,200 young people experiencing homelessness find care, support, and opportunity at My Friend’s Place. From a hot meal, a shower, and fresh clothing to creative arts workshops, mental health support, and pathways to housing, MFP creates a space where young people can feel safe, seen, and full of possibility.

We’d love for you to join us in this effort. Whether through a donation, spreading the word, or simply cheering us on, you’ll be helping ensure that young people in Los Angeles have the support and community they deserve.

Together, let’s keep moving toward a world where no young person has to face homelessness alone.

With gratitude,

Your MFP4Lyfe Team
