The Palisades Recreation Center Brick by Brick Campaign is an initiative dedicated to LA Strong Sports's mission to rebuild and enhance valuable community spaces devastated by the Palisades and Eaton fires. These tragic events not only displaced thousands of families but also destroyed essential community hubs such as our beloved parks, libraries, and schools, places that once brought us together and made our neighborhoods feel like home.
The Palisades Recreation Center was more than just a facility; it was the heart of the community, serving over 20,000 people with a tennis center, two gyms, outdoor playgrounds, baseball fields, and more. Its loss is profoundly felt across the community, and now, with your help, we have the opportunity to restore and improve this vital space, brick by brick.
LA Strong Sports is a nonprofit organization co-founded by the Jackson, Redick, and Kilgore families following the fires to aggregate resources and provide grants that build, sustain, and grow top-tier sports and recreation facilities and programs in Los Angeles. By supporting the Palisades Recreation Center Brick Campaign, you are contributing directly to this mission, helping to restore not only a physical structure but a place where memories are made, friendships are formed, and a sense of community is fostered.
Each generous donation will go directly towards the rebuilding of Pali Rec and a personalized brick that will be included in the new park design. Each donation helps to ensure that the Palisades Recreation Center can once again serve as a gathering place for sports, recreation, and community connection. Each brick donated symbolizes support, hope, and commitment to the community's future, creating a lasting legacy that will inspire and unite generations to come.
Join us in this meaningful endeavor to restore what was lost and create an even better future for the residents of the Palisades community. Together, we can bring the heart of our community back to life, one brick at a time.
We have been overwhelmed with the response to the Brick by Brick Campaign, with over $300,000 raised in just the first 48 hours. Like you, we love the Palisades and Pali Rec and cannot wait to be back together soon.Β
