Announcements
Backpacks & Cuts
​
Last year’s Backpacks & Cuts event was a beautiful success — a true reflection of what community care looks like in action. Together, we served over 100 people, giving away free backpacks filled with school supplies and gender-affirming products, offered free haircuts, served meals, and created a space of love, healing, and connection for youth and families across Los Angeles.
​
We’re already preparing for Backpacks & Cuts 2026 — and we need your help to make it even bigger and better! 💛
Your donations, whether monetary or in-kind (school supplies, backpacks, hygiene kits, refreshments, etc), help us equip more students, support local barbers and stylists, and build the kind of community our kids deserve.
​
Give today and help us make next year unforgettable!
