Friends of HH
In
addition to the thousands of individuals who have given to us over the
years, these very special groups have helped Hollywood HEART impact the
lives of at-risk youth in Southern California:
Vans Warped Tour
In 1995, Camp Pacific Heartland learned about a new lifestyle and music tour for teens and young adults from friends at Creative Artists Agency. Together we created a way for the Vans Warped Tour attendees to help other kids - namely, our AIDS-affected campers. By donating 25 cents from every ticket sold to Camp Pacific Heartland, the organizers of the tour made a commitment to supporting our work throughout the year. The Vans Warped Tour, which continues to grow in size and popularity every year, now counts as one of our biggest annual donors. Huge thanks to the Vans Warped Tour, and the many thousands of music and extreme sports lovers across the country who participate, for supporting Hollywood HEART!
International Society of Hospitality Purchasers (ISHP)
A brief piece about one of our gala fundraisers in Los Angeles aired by
E! Entertainment caught the eye of Neil Locke, then president of the
International Society of Hospitality Purchasers, a hotel industry
association with a nationwide membership. Neil had the great idea of
combining business with philanthropy and at the next Hospitality Trade
Show in New York; the ISHP threw a meet and greet party for purchasers
and vendors. The vendor companies paid for the chance to meet the key
people in the purchasing departments of major hotels, and after
expense, ISHP donated all proceeds to Camp Pacific Heartland. The
hospitality community was proud to donate to our cause, and have
continued to support us in two annual fundraising events that coincide
with their industry's conventions in Miami and Las Vegas. Now entering
into our eighth year of partnership, ISHP has already donated more
than a million dollars to CPH/Hollywood HEART. Without the support and
enthusiasm of the ISHP board and members, as well as the staff of
Hospitality Design magazine who organize the annual event in Las Vegas,
we wouldn’t be able to continue our efforts to enhance the lives of
at-risk children in Los Angeles.
