Additional sponsors include Classic Tents and TravelStore.
TrinityKids Care is the only dedicated pediatric hospice program for infants and children in Southern California. TrinityKids Care provides end of life care to children with life-threatening illnesses.
Sandpipers philanthropic programs provide critical scholarship funding for qualifying students for four continuous years of undergraduate study, as well as community outreach programs that supply ongoing emergency financial and in-kind assistance to children, adults and families at risk within the South Bay community.
