Los Angeles County Alliance of Boys & Girls Clubs - Partners

Champion ($ 250,000 +)
Disney The Walt Disney Company became the first corporate partner. Annually, the Walt Disney Company and their affiliates support each of the L.A. County Boys & Girls Clubs through the Alliance and by providing a $5,000 unrestricted grant for the Clubs and 50 tickets to Disneyland. Over the years, our friends at the Walt Disney Company were also Presenting Sponsors for the 2011 LA County Youth of the Year program and provided over 1,000 tickets for Club members to attend the ESPN X-Games. In 2010, through the involvement of volunteers contributing time in the promotion of “Give a day; Get a day” over 1,000 additional tickets to Disneyland were donated to the Clubs. In addition, the Walt Disney Company engaged over 1,000 youth in the “Disney Friends for Change” program where Club members did projects to benefit the environment. Each member was awarded a ticket to the movie “Oceans” for their participation. In 2009, the Walt Disney Corporation served as a sponsor of the Teen Summit, and in prior years, three Clubs received a new 13-passenger van.
