Giving Back

The Boys and Girls Club of Moorpark and Simi Valley is located nearby our shoreside offices in Calabasas, California, and provides a positive, safe, healthy, fun and educational environment that inspires and enables young people to reach their full potential. We are proud to support them in offering diverse activities in core areas that include character and leadership development; education and career development; sports, fitness and recreation; health and life skills; and the arts.

Personal connection has been at the very foundation of our success as a family company, which is why we proudly contributed to the building of the Yarrow Family YMCA in Westlake Village, California. We share in the YMCA’s vision to build relationships, impact lives and strengthen our community. Our shared passion for healthy living and wellness shines through the amazing fitness activities offered through this YMCA branch and we are pleased to help foster youth development, healthy living and social responsibility through our support.

As passionate connoisseurs of the arts, supporting local arts and culture is very important to us. Film, in particular, is a way for people of diverse backgrounds to connect, learn from one another and share their stories around the world. Each year since 2015, we have been a sponsor of the Calabasas Film Festival, which, in addition to showcasing major film premieres and documentaries, empowers young filmmakers with a platform for outreach through student screenings and events.
