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.
