Opportunity Details
Beautify Koreatown in Celebration of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month!
Join KYCC, the Korean American Federation of Los Angeles (KAFLA) City Councilwoman Heather Hutt, City Councilwoman Katy Yaroslavsky and the LA Board of Public Works as we celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, clean up our neighborhood and make it more livable for our community members.
Why: While on the surface this may sound like just a clean up, events like these not only make the neighborhood more pleasant to look at, but can improve neighborhood self-image and confidence. A community cleanup is a boon for any neighborhood, simply by increasing connections among neighbors and volunteers and creating community. When it brings the possibility of improving lives as well, its value can be even greater. In a typical year, KYCC removes well over 2,000 bags of trash through our cleanup events so your contribution means a lot to us!

(KYCC) is to serve the evolving needs of the Korean American population in the greater Los Angeles Area as well as the multi-ethnic Koreatown community programs and services are directed toward recently immigrated, economically disadvantaged youth and families, and to promote community socioeconomic empowerment.
