Community Assistance Resource Service
Community matters most during uncertain times. The Los Angeles Leather Coalition (LALC) and Los Angeles Leather Pride are here to support those in our leather, kink, and LGBTQ+ family facing hardship.
Originally launched during the COVID-19 pandemic, LALC CAReS is now a permanent pillar of our mission. We believe community is about more than just visibility and celebration—it’s about caring for one another through tangible aid and emotional connection.
Our Guiding Values:
Empathy & Compassion Recognizing that crisis can be isolating.
Privacy & Dignity All applications and assistance are kept strictly confidential.
Inclusivity Support is available to individuals and small businesses, with a focus on our most marginalized members.
Responsiveness We aim to provide clear, timely help through multiple channels.
If you or someone you know needs food or essential supplies, resources are available through the LALC and The Bullet Bar:
LALC CAReS Visit laleatherpride.com/lalc-cares to request assistance.
The Bullet Pantry Email Michael Lara at TheBulletBar@aol.com (Subject: Pantry) for essential supplies and home delivery.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out. We are all in this together—please spread the word to anyone who may need a hand.
