Friends of Pathways have raised over $10 million for Pathways to Independence

2024 WAS A BANNER YEAR

Over 750 guests were in attendance at our "Pathways to Paradise at The Beach" event (CSULB).

In 1996, Pathways to Independence was struggling financially, and ready to close it’s doors. Along came a small group of can-do women who formed “Friends of Pathways” (FOP) to raise money for Pathways to Independence (PTI).

We started with a bang, hosting a progressive dinner party in Park Estates in October of 1996. The generosity of that first group of guests enabled 12 students to begin their journey on the path to Independence. We have grown from a gathering of a handful of Friends to a committee of over 90; with over 750 guests’ in attendance at our event each year.
