“We Are L.A. Strong”

(East Los Angeles, CA) [From The Editor’s Desk]: On Friday, January 24th, the Rams hosted over 200 youth at SoFi Stadium for a special Field Day in collaboration with the L.A. County, Department of Parks & Recreation “Care Camps” program. The Rams went a step further to make this a very comforting and memorable event for all of the aforementioned youth by hosting the entire day within their home field.

The Rams, creators of their unique relief efforts slogan, “LA Together,” designated its campaign to provide other resourceful activities to the families and communities who were devastated by the multiple Firestorms. As a result, this event gave the 200 youth from Altadena and Pasadena a fantastic opportunity to meet and interact “up close and personal” with the handful of Rams players, led by Jared Verse, who gave their time to assist in this very special sports-centered and minded activity.
