Tis the season of giving, and that is why we are so excited to announce our first Hollywood Curling Gives Back event. Through the month of December, Hollywood Curling will be collecting non-perishable food and new or gently used clothing items to donate to local nonprofit organizations, such as The Trans Wellness Center, Downtown Women’s Center, LA Food Bank, and Project Ropa, who provide essential resources to the unhoused community and others in need across Los Angeles.
Donations will be accepted beginning this weekend (December 3) at our Holiday Bonspiel and through the end of our Tournament of Rocks Bonspiel (December 31). All items should be brought to the Southern California Curling Center and placed in the designated collection boxes.
Not sure what to donate? We’ve put together a helpful guide of both non-perishable food and clothing items that are most commonly in demand to get you started. For clothing items, we kindly ask that you only donate items that you would be willing to wear yourself, and to please be sure that all gently used items are clean and ready to wear (no holes or repairs needed). Also note that all undergarments must be new – used undergarments will not be accepted.
If you would like to volunteer to help sort and deliver items at the end of the event, please contact Amanda Landrian at amanda@hollywoodcurling.org.
