Dear Angelenos,

Our 3-day virtual event Strength and Love, The City of Angels’ COVID-19 Memorial begins next week, and we’d love for you to join us.

The memorial ([link removed]) will be held Thursday, November 18, 2021 through November 20, 2021 to:
* HONOR those who held our city together, including first responders, essential workers, small businesses owners, community organizations, caregivers, neighbors, and families.
* REMEMBER those we have lost to the pandemic.
* MOBILIZE to give back to our communities and work together to build a stronger and more resilient city.

This memorial will give us an opportunity to reflect on our collective experience during this pandemic, recognize the resiliency of our city, and come together to create a better future for every Angeleno.

We have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from our community partners, neighboring cities, elected officials, and iconic L.A. institutions.
