Adopt a Block
Adopt A Block builds gospel-centered relationships through consistent community presence. Volunteers join us for a few hours in a designated neighborhood, visited 2–3 times weekly, to identify needs and serve practically.
This may include picking up trash, delivering groceries to those with limited mobility, connecting with families, or knocking on doors to build new relationships. Our goal is not only to meet immediate physical needs but also to love our neighbors and share the hope of Jesus through ongoing care and connection.
Dream Kids
Dream Kids shares the gospel with children in a fun, engaging, and meaningful way. Through play therapy, sports, and activities tailored to their interests, we help kids see how Jesus fits into their everyday lives. Our goal is to provide a safe, joyful space where children grow in kindness, teamwork, and confidence while discovering their unique purpose in Christ.
Volunteers serve alongside us, facilitating games, sports, and creative activities while building relationships with the children. You’ll help create an encouraging, fun atmosphere and show kids the love of Jesus through consistent connection and support.
Mobile Food Trucks
The Dream Center’s mobile food bank ministry serves 17 locations across Los Angeles, providing food assistance to individuals and families. Beyond distributing food, the ministry uses its Food Truck to build Christ-centered relationships within local neighborhoods.
It creates a welcoming, dignified environment, offering not only nourishment but also prayer and volunteer opportunities. Volunteers play a vital role by setting up, distributing food, engaging with the community, and cleaning up afterward. Ultimately, the ministry seeks to foster lasting relationships that promote spiritual growth and community transformation through Christ.
Adult Bible Study
Our Adult Bible Studies, hosted in two communities, provide a small group setting for people to learn about Jesus. These gatherings foster faith growth, encourage questions, and build meaningful relationships among those on a similar spiritual journey.
Volunteers join us to guide discussions, support spiritual growth, and walk alongside individuals eager to deepen their understanding of God’s Word. Whether leading, listening, or simply being present, you’ll play a vital role in helping others grow in their relationship with Jesus.
Homeless Outreach
Homeless Outreach serves Los Angeles’ unhoused community by distributing hot meals, snacks, and essential resources. Volunteers focus on building genuine, consistent relationships with those we meet.
With compassion and dignity, we show up week after week, believing transformation happens through the gospel and faithful presence. Every conversation, meal, and connection reminds someone they are seen, valued, and not alone.

Foster Care Intervention
The Foster Care Intervention team partners with families involved with the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) to help keep families together. We provide essential items, such as furniture and household necessities, to help parents meet requirements for stabilizing their homes and advancing their cases.
Our goal is to support loving families, prevent unnecessary separations, aid reunification, and help close DCFS cases.
Volunteers deliver tangible hope by furnishing homes, offering practical support, and fostering stability and dignity during critical times.
Clothing Outreach
In a typical month, we distribute around 20,000 articles of clothing. Through this weekly outreach, the Dream Center partners with many volunteers to visit over 15 underserved neighborhoods with the goal of finding a need and filling it. As many as 500 volunteers serve by distributing food, hygiene items and other essentials, playing with kids, picking up trash, and visiting families door-to-door. Practical services are also available to the community to provide emotional, physical, mental and spiritual support.
Outdoor Pantry
Disaster Relief collaborates with various churches and other organizations in order to quickly provide resources and emotional and spiritual support to victims affected by natural disasters occurring in the United States. The Outdoor Pantry is open twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays to provide free resource distribution such as hygiene supplies, water, diapers and groceries.
