Corporate Partnerships

We work closely with our corporate partners to cultivate mutually beneficial opportunities that make a real and lasting impact! You can make a difference in your community through philanthropy, event sponsorships, volunteer opportunities and more.

Here’s what our partners have to say:

UTA volunteering in the kitchen

"United Talent Agency (UTA) is proud of its partnership with The People Concern. UTA values the critical aid The People Concern provides to our unhoused neighbors and is happy to engage in ongoing volunteerism in the kitchen and yearly holiday drives."

Dr. Squatch’s Virtual Event

"We appreciate having The People Concern as one of our partners. Whether it's fundraisers or food drives, the Dr. Squatch team has loved getting creative with how we involve in the community and engage with an organization we trust. We are excited to continue our partnership with The People Concern to give back and improve lives."

TigerConnect Team

"We've enjoyed our experiences with The People Concern through a range of activities. Our employees have volunteered in The People Concern facilities, making lunch for residents, as well as our entire company building lunch and hygiene kits during our bi-annual event. All of these activities were great bonding experiences for the TigerConnect team and everyone appreciated the direct and positive impact they made for others. Individual well-being is important to us...

Amazon Advertising

“We always enjoy our time with Noe and the residents of The People Concern! Between BINGO, prizes and pizza lunches it’s always fun engaging with the program participants over the course of just a few short hours. It’s exciting that over time we have gotten to know these individuals and it’s incredible what The People Concern brings to the community of Santa Monica!”

Level Four Busineess Management, LLC

“We thought that we could do a better job at putting our resources back into the community. It’s not always easy to find an organization you trust or enjoy working with and we’ve found both in The People Concern. We first started by doing a small dinner and we’ve been coming back for 10 years.”

Give Thanks & Gobble

Give Thanks and Gobble was started in 2011 by Skye Montgomery and the Montgomery family, as an initiative to bring awareness to the issue of hunger and homelessness and provide a true Thanksgiving experience for her most vulnerable neighbors. Since then, community leaders, businesses and volunteers have come together to share a delicious Thanksgiving feast with over 650 individuals living in The People Concern’s interim housing locations. Join us in 2021 by becoming an official sponsor!

Giving Tree

Each Giving Tree celebration is a day of food, festivities and holiday cheer! They are one of the highlights of the year for our program participants, many of whom have not celebrated the holidays in a while. Last December we helped make the season brighter for over 1,000 program participants at our interim and permanent supportive housing programs. Our corporate partners brought food, presents and hosted joyous celebrations throughout L.A. County. Click here to learn more about Giving Tree! We hope you’ll join us in December 2021.

Ways to Stay Involved Off-Site

Here’re additional ways to make a difference from the comfort of your office (or home)!

HYGIENE KITS

Hygiene kits helps us satisfy some of the basic needs of our homeless neighbors. Outreach teams distribute these necessities to those they meet in the field, helping them engage and build relationships with homeless individuals and connect them to life-saving services and housing.

Hygiene kits consist of travel-size toiletries inside a Ziploc bag. Items for hygiene kits can be purchased in bulk. Purchased items for hygiene kits here.
