Philanthropy came to life for SAM members through four unforgettable site visits that took them beyond the meeting room and into the heart of the community. These powerful experiences offered a firsthand glimpse into the transformative work of our grantee partners—A Sense of Home, Boys & Girls Club of Malibu, Molly Steinsapir Foundation, and Pacific Community Ventures.

In the fall of 2024, SAM members had the incredible opportunity to go beyond the giving circle meetings and into the heart of the community, participating in four powerful site visits. Each visit offered a firsthand look at the transformative work being led by our grantees—Lost Angels, Harmony Project, Partners for Children South L.A., and Tzedek America.
