Santa Monica PAL's Best Gift Ever Drive
Donate
For many children in Santa Monica, this exceptionally joyful time of year will be a challenge as many families are struggling with rising costs due to inflation and other financial hardships. To brighten the holidays, PAL is continuing with its Best Gift Ever Drive to provide gifts to many of our vulnerable families in the community.
The Santa Monica Police Activities League (PAL) is an organization that provides free after-school enrichment, activities, and classes for youth aged 6 to 17. PAL's mission is to foster trust between youth and the men and women of the Santa Monica Police Department. Through a diverse range of dynamic educational, fitness, leadership, and recreational programs, PAL strives to enrich the lives of youth, advance equity, and empower youth to thrive. PAL's multifaceted programs aim to break down stigmas, alleviate fear, and address high levels of distrust between vulnerable youth and law enforcement. By creating targeted enrichment programs and activities, PAL helps bridge the gap and build positive relationships between the community's youth and local law enforcement.
