The non-profit organization Happy Village, operated by the Korea Daily, is hosting its annual year-end event, the ‘2024 Warm Jacket Donation Drive,’ to support the homeless.
Now in its 18th year, this campaign aims to provide warmth to those living on the streets during the cold winter months. It is a meaningful event that brings together the community’s compassion to assist needy neighbors.
Happy Village collaborates with homeless outreach organizations to distribute jackets, not only to Korean-American homeless individuals but also to those in various areas across Los Angeles. This year’s distribution will take place on Saturday, December 14, in partnership with more than 20 homeless support organizations.
The jackets are funded by donations from generous individuals, and Happy Village encourages greater participation in this effort to support those struggling with the challenges of inflation.
