How is your organization creatively moving LA forward?

Veronica’s Legacy Foundation Mission The mission of Veronica’s Legacy Foundation (VLF) is to assist the homeless and the poor in the Southern Los Angeles area (regardless of culture, race, ethnicity, creed, sexuality or even species), both in collaboration with established non-profit organizations, or as an independent entity. Veronica’s Legacy Foundation (VLF) is a grass roots 501 (C)(3) organization begun by the extended family of Veronica Enriquez and encompassing her friends to continue her wish to “pay it forward”. We have provided meals, Holiday Meals along with gifts for kids in needy families, clothing, financial assistance and also have a funeral fund that provides $250 to families in need of help with burial costs.

Why does your organization need this fundraiser event?

Our entire budget is funded with only a few fundraising events and the occasional independent contribution. We host a fundraiser that includes live bands, live art being painted for silent auction and fund raising raffles in September. Our fundraising is short of what could be utilized. We provide as many holiday meals as we can with what we have raised and disperse nearly all funds raised.This year we have more families referred to us than we have funds to provide!
