For our Youth. For our Future...
The Los Angeles County Alliance of Boys & Girls Clubs (LA Alliance) is comprised of 27 Boys & Girls Club organizations serving approximately 120,000 kids in 88 Los Angeles County Clubs. About 67 percent of the kids we serve live at or below the Federal Poverty Level. About half live in households with a single “parent”.  Our mission is to “inspire and enable  all youth, especially those from disadvantaged circumstances, to realize their full potential, to become productive and responsible citizens.”

The LA Alliance recently were introduced to the movie RevoLOUtion, that deals with tough issues that currently face not only our Los Angeles youth, but troubled youth everywhere.  The movie deals with issues, such as child abuse, teen depression, street “survival”, and the need to develop a self “worth”— issues leading toward healing, self-discovery, communication and mentoring.

What struck me most about the film is how the movie could be used as a tool to openly explore and create dialogue around some of the film’s central themes—themes not atypical for many of our Boys & Girls Club teens. Despite the need to address these issues, there are relatively few forums or opportunities in which kids can freely and honestly express themselves.

The LA Alliance would like to partner with you and Providence Productions for the specific  purpose of showing this film to 9th-12th graders, served by our  
Clubs.  In so doing, special viewings, to be held at a LA theater once daily (4 p.m. show), and twice daily on the weekend, April 28 – May 5, would be made available to our Club youth, and to other non-profit agencies that also address these critical real life issues. At the film’s conclusion, a trained facilitator would interact with the students to encourage open discussion, and to shed light on various issues, perspectives, etc. Students would later be asked to write a journal entry on their thoughts, and those that wished to, could submit them for publication and possible award recognition. We hope that you will be present during one or several of the viewings.

A $50,000 sponsorship gift made by you, will provide for needed transportation and program costs involved, allowing as many Angelino youth as possible to participate in this film and educational experience. Importantly, as a highly recognized and respected member of our community, your endorsement and sponsorship owill provide much needed leverage to create awareness of these critical issues facing our youth through media and public outlets, while also shining light on your own Foundation, and the worthy programs that it supports.

Impressed with the film and its endeavor to serve the missions of youth organizations, a number of top publications are already excited to run feature articles. In addition or if you prefer, we could lternatively and quickly plan a fundraising event as a LA premiere to match or underwrite the $50, 000 needed to best serve LA teens. You may also choose to have a countertop displays, which would promote the special program or discounted ticket to your patrons.

It would be a pleasure and honor to work with you and your Foundation.  By partnering with the LA Alliance, 27 Clubs could participate and thousands of teens throughout LA will benefit from your visionary and leadership support.  Bret Carr, the director, and Stephen Polk, the producer of RevoLOUtion, and I would be most happy to meet with you to discuss the details.  As the dates selected for the viewings are fast approaching, we hope to hear back from you soon.

Working together, we can make a positive impact on our youth - and our future.
