Drive Opportunity Forward: Help Us Provide Safe Transportation for Every Child
At Mar Vista Recreation Center, our summer programs give children a safe place to learn, play, and grow. But for many families, one challenge continues to limit participation: reliable transportation.

As demand for community programs grows and resources are stretched, we are taking a proactive step to ensure every child has access—no matter their circumstances.
Our Goal: $75,000 to Build a Sustainable Transportation Solution
This campaign is not just about purchasing a vehicle. It’s about creating a safe, reliable, and long-term transportation system that supports our community for years to come.
Funds raised will support:
- Passenger Van Purchase
- A safe, low-mileage 12–15 passenger van to transport children to and from the center and program activities.
- Insurance & Compliance (2 Years)
- Ensuring full coverage and adherence to safety standards for youth transportation.
- Safety Equipment & Upgrades
- GPS tracking, dash cameras, and essential safety enhancements to protect every child onboard.
- Operating Support
- Fuel, maintenance, and upkeep to keep the van running smoothly throughout summer programs and beyond.

Why This Matters
Without reliable transportation:
- Some children miss out on summer programs entirely
- Working families face added logistical stress
- Attendance becomes inconsistent, impacting program quality
With this van, we can:
- Expand access to more families in the community
- Ensure consistent participation and engagement
- Provide safe, supervised transportation for all program activities
This is about more than logistics—it’s about equity, access, and opportunity.

Every contribution helps move us closer to our goal:
