JLLA's Provisional Class Kicks off 5th Annual KITK
The 2009-2010 provisional class kicks off JLLA’s “Kids in the Kitchen” (KITK) program to help empower nearly 500 Los Angeles children and teens make healthy lifestyle choices that could help reverse the rate of childhood obesity and associated health issues. The seven KITK events will take place on Saturdays from April 10-24, 2010. Lessons include preparing healthy meals and snacks, and demonstrations of fun and easy ways to stay in shape.
Annual Giving “Make Lives by Giving” Campaign
We thank the 25 percent of members who have given to the Fund – either with the Angel Campaign or through the Annual Fund for their generous donations. To reach our goal of 100 percent participation, we've asked all our members to give – even if it is just $1! Support can change a life in such amazing ways.
JLLA Helps Students Get Ready to Attend College
The students at Heart of Los Angeles (HOLA) have worked incredibly hard to reach an enormous milestone in their lives: preparing to go to college! Members are collecting comfort items to help them make living away from home easier.
Comedy Sportz Puts On A Show For Aviva
Last month, Comedy Sportz, the longest running stage show in Los Angeles, came to Aviva to help teach team building and self-confidence to our program participants. Little did we know that it would end up being a great bonding opportunity for everyone and provide us with the chance to see new sides to these great girls.
Stories Abroad Springs into Action!
JLLA’s CII Stories Abroad program began its spring 2010 session with a bang and the program’s highest enrollment to date! At the end of the event, 35 kids had enrolled in the spring workshops – 15 more than in years past. So far this session, the group has visited ancient Egypt, France, Stonehenge, Africa, the American Southwest and Ireland! The children also celebrated Earth Day, a month early, on March 13, 2010, by learning about conservation and recycling and by beautifying the CII campus.
DWC Has Soul
JLLA member Wendy Phelps was the featured guest speaker at the February 27, 2010, “Whole Woman: Saturday’s for Yourself” workshop at the Downtown Women’s Center (DWC). The workshop, focusing on the theme “Soul”, was filled to capacity with 25 participants. Wendy, owner of “More is Available Coaching and Consulting” presented many strategies for coping with the stress life invariably brings our way, and also bringing out the best in ourselves in any situation.
Public Policy Training On Childhood Obesity
On Saturday, May 1, 2010, the Public Affairs Committee (PAC) will hold its annual training on Childhood Obesity, a topic chosen for its timeliness, as well as the fact that it is highly relevant to JLLA’s Kids in the Kitchen project. This past February, First Lady Michelle Obama announced her intention to make childhood obesity a national priority. With this national focus and relevance to our community partner, PAC decided to take a closer look at what can be done to combat this problem and ways to promote education and awareness within the community.
