On May 3, 2024, Father Greg Boyle received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor. Weeks later, on his birthday, the city of Los Angeles declared May 19th “Father Greg Boyle Day”. This week, please join us honoring Father Greg and the transformative work of Homeboy Industries.
This year, we're inviting you to help us celebrate this special occasion (also Father Greg’s Birthday!) in a meaningful way. Your donation, no matter the size, is a gift that extends Father Greg’s legacy of kinship and hope. Our goal? 1,000 donations—aka a full G for G Day. It's a bold target, but one that reflects the deep and wide-reaching impact of Father Greg’s work. And if you find it in your heart to give 1G for G ($1,000), know that your generosity will go even further in fueling this mission of radical love and second chances.
Celebrate with something sweet. Come in and enjoy a free slice of our signature coffee cake with every purchase at Homegirl Café anytime May 12th through May 19th.
