Women in Health Administration of Southern California is pleased to invite you to a Holiday Volunteering Event with Venice Family Clinic!

Please join WHA for a Holiday Volunteering Event with the Venice Family Clinic!  This event is open to WHA members and their guests (ages 14+).

We will be helping to collect, transport, and unload all of the books and toys left over after the Children’s Holiday Movie.

Volunteers will meet the Clinic Staff at the Howard Hughes Center, load the moving truck with toys and books, and then unload the truck at the Clinic. These toys and books will then be distributed to pediatric patients that were unable to attend the event throughout the weeks of December.

As always, we will also discuss healthcare, our careers, and how WHA fits into our professional development!

Registration Fee: There is no registration fee. If you volunteer, we will provide a code to register for WHA’s Annual Holiday Party for $5 off!

Additional Information

Location & Parking: We will first meet at the movie theater to load all the extra toys and books into the moving van and then will travel independently to Venice Family Clinic to help unload and sort the extra materials.

• Location 1: The Howard Hughes Promenade, 6081 Center Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90045. Parking: Free for all volunteers.  There will be no attendants before 9 am so if you arrive before then, simply enter the parking structure. If you arrive after 9 am, please let the parking attendant know you are there for the Venice Family Clinic event and they will provide complimentary parking.


• Location 2: Venice Family Clinic, 604 Rose Avenue, Venice, CA 90291. Parking: Feel free to park in the clinic’s lots (see image) or on the surrounding streets.

Attire: Please wear comfortable, close-toed shoes appropriate for heavy lifting.  Also, we encourage you to wear festive holiday attire!

Physical Requirements: This volunteer activity requires some heavy lifting — boxes should not be more than 50 lb each so it may require 2 people loading/unloading each box.

More About the Event: Children’s Holiday Movie, presented by Anthem Blue Cross, raises $170,000 for our pediatric programs to ensure that our youngest patients have access to all of the services necessary to keep families and children healthy. As a part of this event, we also create a special holiday celebration for 1,200 pediatric patients and their families. They will enjoy a private screening of a children’s holiday movie, holiday entertainment and gift bags with books and toys. The theater, entertainment and toys for the event are all underwritten, so all proceeds go to supporting Venice Family Clinic pediatrics.
