2025 Annual Benefit

45TH ANNIVERSARY GALA

May 8, 2025  

The Beverly Hilton

Every year, our Annual Benefit celebrates the milestones Para Los Niños children, youth, and families have achieved while honoring the people who have supported their transformative journeys.

We serve powerful communities with strong family ties and rich cultural traditions, but who are hardest hit by homelessness and food insecurity due to chronic underinvestment and unjust policies. Donations from our Annual Benefit are critical in allowing us to put people and systems in place so that more families have access to all of the programs and services PLN has to offer. If our 45-year history has proven anything, it’s that we have the experience necessary to help multiple generations in a family with complex social needs reach their educational, emotional and employment goals.

This year, guests will enjoy a magical evening at the Beverly Hilton, including inspiring stories, a silent auction, student speakers and special guest performances. Make memories; make a difference.

Lucille Roybal-Allard served as a state and congressional legislator 1987 to 2023, where she was a strong advocate for women’s rights and environmental equity.​ Roybal-Allard has been recognized for spearheading legislation that has improved maternal and newborn health, her advocacy on a legal pathway for immigrant youth and her efforts to change conditions for child workers.
