Giving Purpose Teams Up With the South Bay Swim For Mental Health.
When we were asked to team up with the South Bay Swim for Mental Health which took place on September 20th in Torrance, CA, the decision was a no-brainer. So the natural thing to do was to provide YOU ARE ENOUGH swim caps and wristbands for the event's swag bag! The non-profit event, formerly the 10K Swim for Mental Health, was founded by members of the South Bay Masters Swim community in 2020 after a friend and fellow ocean swimming mate's son passed away unexpectedly durin

The Fourth Annual YOU ARE ENOUGH 5K Was a Blast!

The Hispanic and Latino Communities Deserve And Need To Feel and Be Seen More Than We Know
I have a feeling many of us feel this way and that a lot of folks also do not realize that the Hispanic and Latino (Latinx) population in California, and especially Los Angeles, is the majority as far as our population is concerned.
