Mission Statement
Founded in 1941, Variety the Children's Charity of Southern California is dedicated to inspiring hope, enriching lives and building a better future for the children of Southern California. We’re one of the leading chapters of Variety International – The Children’s Charity. Variety awards over three quarters of a million dollars annually to organizations that serve Southern California children in the areas of Health Care, Education and Mobility. Variety is also a major supporter of the Variety Boys and Girls Club of Boyle Heights. The money raised in Southern California stays here in our community – and Variety personally visits every organization it supports to ensure that every donation helps the most amount of children where the need is greatest.
About This Cause
Variety’s Education Grants provide underprivileged children and at-risk youth the programs necessary to pursue their education and dreams and overcome the barriers of poverty, poor performing schools and high levels of unemployment. Education grants fund early literacy programs, college scholarships, homework assistance, college prep, career readiness, art, music, science and technology workshops, sports and gang prevention counseling. Variety’s Health Care Grants support early intervention programs for kids with learning disabilities; medical care and therapy for children who are victims of abuse and neglect, and help for kids and families facing homelessness. Variety sends hundreds of kids battling life-threatening illnesses to camp – to give them a break from the pain and chaos of treatments. Variety’s Mobility Program provides confidence, freedom, and much-needed therapeutic exercise to children with disabilities by providing specially-designed adaptive bikes, strollers and other mobility equipment. Since 1949, the Variety Boys & Girls Club has responded to the needs of children in the Boyle Heights/ East Los Angeles community by offering leadership development programs, tutoring and mentoring, sports and aquatics programs, art programs, a computer learning center and library and college scholarships. The Club is a safe haven where our children are provided the support they need to make their dreams a reality.
