P.S, I Love You
The P.S. I Love You Foundations 22nd Annual “Day at the Beach” fundraiser takes place Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. between 6th and 8th Street in Manhattan Beach. The event brings over 300 underprivileged children to Manhattan Beach to enjoy a day of playing on the sand and in the ocean. Adult mentors help them learn to use boogie boards and take part in fun beach sports like relay races and beach volleyball. See PSILoveYourFoundation.org to contribute or volunteer. ER
