Thank you for joining us at the 23^rd Annual Strictly Business Awards Dinner

The 23rd Annual Strictly Business Awards Dinner, JVS SoCal’s premier annual event, honored outstanding individuals and corporate partners in our community who have set the standard for social responsibility and philanthropy.

Thank you to our sponsors, guests and honorees who helped make this a successful and memorable event. This year we raised nearly $830,000, breaking previous event records, which will directly impact the individuals and families we serve.

We are grateful to our partners for sharing our vision and commitment to building thriving communities with hope and economic opportunity for all. The Power of Partnership enables us to achieve what we could not on our own and empowers our clients with the tools, training, and resources to overcome barriers to employment and transform their lives.
