Bowl-A-Thon
Annually the Westside Coalition hosts a Bowl-A-Thon as its main fundraiser. After 3 years of trying our hand at Lawn Bowling we have decided to go back to the bowling alley and take our beloved event back to where it began. This event brings together community members, businesses and non-profit agencies collectively fund-raising for the Westside Coalition. You can email us directly with any inquiries at info@westsideshelter.org.

Project Homeless Connect/ Faith Connect
Each winter as the weather turns cold and it begins to rain, temporary Winter Shelters are set up for the homeless residents on the Westside of Los Angeles. Before the Winter Shelters close, the coalition organizes Project Homeless Connect events in collaboration with the shelter operators. These events brings representatives from the local non-profits, faith organizations and city and county social service agencies to the shelter to speak with the homeless residents about seeking services.
The Faith Community, comprised of numerous religious organizations gather donations to distribute throughout the evening. We have 4 dates this year; contact our office for information and how you can participate. info@westsideshelter.org
