Los Angeles Youth & Family Foundation
Give where results show up the same day.
A community-powered 501(c)(3) — fast, accountable, and local. Clean blocks, family support, and youth opportunity you can see.
Dear community partner
Safer, cleaner, more hopeful blocks.
Safe & Clean Streets LA pairs block-by-block clean-ups with practical family support. We track clean-ups finished, families served, and corridors stabilized — then we report it.

Why LAYFF
Delivery — not process theater.
A grant, sponsorship, or gift becomes clean corridors, food for families, safer parks, and youth days you can visit.
Proven delivery
More than a dozen clean-ups this year, three back-to-school events, and the 22nd annual holiday drives next.
Rapid response
Distribution center stood up quickly during storms, fires, and enforcement surges.
Accountability
Receipts, outcomes tracking, and partner-specific reporting you can share with your board.
Give
Your gift, same-day impact.
Choose an amount to give through PayPal. Every contribution is tax-deductible as allowed by law, and we send a receipt.
In-kind is welcome too: bags, gloves, pickers, power-wash, new toys, coats, gift cards, non-perishables, and storage.
Sponsorships & grants
