"He can have my Xbox and PC!"
That selfless moment sparked a realization: if one child were willing to give his prized possessions to help another, how powerful could a community-wide effort become?
On January 12, @AltadenaBoys was born with a simple Instagram post. By January 17—just five days later—it hosted its first pop-up donation event, proving that the community was ready to rally behind boys in need.
What began as a response to a specific crisis has evolved into a broader mission to support boys' well-being throughout our community. Website: altadenaboys.com
