HAWKs (Hiking Adventures with Kids) is an ecology camp for elementary school students. We aim to create community, forge connection with nature, and encourage stewardship with our explorers. HAWKs is all about finding joy in nature, so we play nature-based games, do crafts and journaling, and learn how to identify native plants and animals. Our curriculum is place-based and evolves with our environment, covering topics like fire ecology, indigenous history, species relationships, birding, herping, and foraging. Join us on Los Angeles’ local trails and greenspaces for summer, holiday, after school, and weekend camps! Learn more: hawksla.com.

Founded in 1931, California Credit Union has grown into one of the largest credit unions in Southern California, with more than 88,000 members and nearly $1.5 billion in assets. Our call center, phone banking system, website, and 13 branch locations provide a full range of services to members throughout Los Angeles County. Our success can be traced to a simple philosophy: unlike banks, whose profits benefit a few stockholders, the credit union returns earnings to members in the form of reduced loan rates, higher savings yields and reduced fees. As a member-owned financial cooperative, California Credit Union deals only with stable and secure products and services. This philosophy has served us well for more than 80 years, and will continue to guide us for many more years to come. All funds deposited with California Credit Union are federally insured by the NCUA up to $250,000. We also undergo regular financial reviews by an independent auditor.
