A Community-Powered Mission

Padres De Los Angeles (PDLA) is a grassroots organization fueled exclusively by the heart of our community. Unlike larger institutions, we currently operate without city, state, or federal grant funding. While we are persistent in our efforts to secure government support and continue to apply for public assistance programs, our mission currently relies entirely on the generosity of private donors and local businesses.
