FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ON February 13, 2024

Power of One Foundation partners with IKEA Los Angeles, LA County Supervisor Solis, Home Depot, and other community partners for the Kids First Campaign to Support Children Affected by LA Wildfires

Los Angeles, CA – January 31, 2025 – Power of One Foundation (POOF) is proud to announce its partnership with IKEA Los Angeles, LA County Supervisor Solis, Giving Children Hope, Home Depot, 211LA, United Way OC, Genesis for Good Foundation, and other amazing community partners for the Kids First Campaign, a community campaign dedicated to helping children affected by the recent Los Angeles wildfires. This initiative aligns with POOF’s mission to provide essential resources to anyone in need of them, without prejudice.

The wildfires left thousands of children displaced, depriving them of their homes, schools, and a sense of normalcy. To address these ongoing challenges, the Kids First Campaign has launched with an Essentials Drive that is collecting and distributing new school supplies, toys, hygiene products, books, and other vital resources to children ages 0-16.

The campaign will leverage the strength of community partnerships, with IKEA stores in Burbank, Carson, Covina, and Costa Mesa hosting donation hubs from January 31 to February 28, 2025. Customers and community members are encouraged to visit these stores to drop off new essential items that will directly support children in need.

The collected donations will be sorted and distributed through a collaborative effort led by Power of One Foundation in partnership with LA County Supervisor Hilda L. Solis and local organizations. The campaign will culminate in a Kids First Resource Fair at the end of March at IKEA Burbank’s parking lot. This fair will connect affected families with much-needed resources, entertainment for children, and symbolic care kits to spark hope and joy.

"The partnership with Power of One Foundation reflects IKEA’s deep commitment to our community’s well-being," said Vanessa Pasillas, IKEA Loyalty Manager. "The power of community to come together and bring comfort, hope, and stability to children and families when they need it most is truly inspiring”. “Our hearts go out to every single Los Angeles family impacted by the heartbreaking wildfire devastation. As a foundation, we will continue to find ways to support Communities Caring for Communities and are grateful for IKEA always being ready to be on the frontlines with us” says Andre Roberson, POOF’s Executive Director.

About Power of One Foundation:

POOF’s mission is to provide basic human resources to every person in need, regardless of their country of origin, race, gender, or socioeconomic status. The foundation focuses on fighting poverty and hunger by providing food & resource assistance and free community enrichment events to underserved communities in Orange County, CA and surrounding areas.

CEO Glenn Gray and Dr. Alissa Deming, VP of Conservation Medicine & Science, sat down with me to talk about the Pacific Marine Mammal Center

Today’s show is a little different. If you think you hear strange noises during the show, well they are not actually strange at all. They are seals and sea lions and mostly very young ones. For this week's show, I recorded a remote segment so I could share an authentic experience during my visit to the Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach. Some of you might remember when it was called Friends of the Sea Lions. I had not been there in years and decided to learn more about their history, mission, and current renovations transforming this purpose-driven rehabilitation center for marine mammals.

I hope you enjoy today's show, and remember you are about to hear a lot of seals joining us in the background!

LISTEN

There is no better way to get out of a funk than to put yourself in a situation where you are helping others, and in this case, helping the environment, too. Getting involved with purpose-driven initiatives can be a game changer in your life and the lives of others. When you shift your perspective on how you can make a difference in this world, you not only lift yourself up by using your time and energy for good, but you help others and, in this case, you are addressing an environmental issue. If what you learn today sparks your interest, check out how you can get trained in becoming a volunteer at the Pacific Marine Mammal center. You will be glad you did.

During my visit to the Pacific Marine Mammal Center i learned how the staff rescue, rehabilitate, and release marine mammals; this also inspires ocean stewardship through research, education, and collaboration. This is the only center in Orange County, California, licensed to rescue, rehabilitate, and release marine mammals that strand on local beaches. PMMC is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization.


When I first moved here in 2000, I remember shortly thereafter visiting with my young kids. Pacific Marine Mammal Center first began as Friends of the Sea Lion in 1971

PMMC was the first marine mammal rehabilitation facility in California and was established before the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972. They now share the responsibility for marine mammal rehabilitation with six other centers along California’s coastline

What began 53 years ago with a single injured harbor seal, PMMC is now recognized as a premier marine mammal rescue, research, and rehabilitation center. The center welcomes around 50,000 visitors annually from around the world to learn about current rescued animals and observe conservation efforts in action.

They teach more than 36,000 students from local schools how to be better ocean stewards, and their distance-learning programs educate students across the country. Finally, they have a team of more than two hundred volunteers providing approximately $1.2 million dollars of donated time, assisting in rescues, animal care, education, and retail locations.

As their website says, “PMMC runs on passionate people. “Their departments include Animal Care, Education, Development, Volunteer Engagement, Operations, and a compassionate Board of Directors. If interested in joining the team, check our careers page for opportunities or become one of our awesome volunteers! And now they are undergoing a major renovation thanks to support throughout our community, but you will hear more about that later.

And this brings me to my conversation with the CEO Glenn Gray and
Dr. Alissa (A LI-SUH) Deming, VP of Conservation Medicine & Science, who sat down with me recently to share details about the important work this center is doing with regards to the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of marine mammals. They are also currently under construction with an impressive expansion thanks to the late Bob Parker and his foundation. You can learn more about the center right here in Laguna Beach by visiting: Pacific Marine Mammal Center (pacificmmc.org)

SONY PICTURES CLASSICS’ ‘BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN’ HITS ALL THE RIGHT NOTES WITH BIGGEST OPENING WEEKEND EVER FOR AN IMAX®-EXCLUSIVE MUSIC RELEASE

“Becoming Led Zeppelin” had the largest ever opening weekend for an IMAX-exclusive music release, according to a press released issued by Sony Pictures on February 10.

The release says the film grossed $3 million in its opening weekend, with $2.6 million coming from its release in the US.

Here’s the full press release published by Sony Pictures:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SONY PICTURES CLASSICS’ ‘BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN’ HITS ALL THE RIGHT NOTES WITH BIGGEST OPENING WEEKEND EVER FOR AN IMAX®-EXCLUSIVE MUSIC RELEASE


The Documentary, Which Opened To A $3M IMAX® Debut, Is Enjoying A Whole Lotta Love Ahead Of Its Valentine’s Day Wide Release


NEW YORK (February 10, 2025) – Sony Pictures Classics’ BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN, the first-ever sanctioned film on the band in the almost 57 years since the formation of the notoriously private group, gave a record-breaking performance for its first weekend at the box office as it opened to an impressive $3M IMAX® debut across 16 countries and territories. Domestically, the film’s $2.6M start ($7K per screen average) represents the biggest opening weekend ever for an IMAX®-exclusive music release, as audiences nationwide flock to experience the exhilarating docu-concert on the largest screens available.

With its successful debut, BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN landed in the domestic top 10 chart at #8 this past weekend and saw particularly strong results from both coasts as well as markets including Toronto, Cleveland, St. Louis, and Dallas. The documentary, which was released exclusively in IMAX® this past Friday on 369 North American screens and held one-night-only early access screenings in eighteen markets earlier in the week, will expand nationwide across 1,000 screens on Friday, February 14, 2025.

BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN explores the origins of this iconic group and their meteoric rise in just one year against all the odds, providing an unparalleled look at the how the rock band came together as audiences witness firsthand the formation of their first two official tours and the creation of their history-making, self-titled debut and sophomore albums.


Powered by awe-inspiring, psychedelic, never-before-seen footage, interviews, performances and music, Bernard MacMahon’s experiential cinematic odyssey explores Led Zeppelin’s creative, musical, and personal origin story, with unprecedented access to the group and their archives that solidifies the film as the definitive Led Zeppelin documentary.


The hybrid docu-concert film also unveils a huge amount of rare and unseen Led Zeppelin performance footage. The result is a visceral musical experience that will transport audiences into the concert halls and musical lives of Led Zeppelin during their earliest tours, accompanied by intimate, exclusive commentary from the famously private band.


BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN is a movie that almost didn’t come to fruition – the filmmakers were up against epic challenges, including the fact that hardly any footage from the band’s early period existed. MacMahon and producer Allison McGourty embarked on a global detective search for material to illustrate the band’s story.


BECOMING LED ZEPPELIN is directed by the award-winning, Emmy® and BAFTA® nominated Bernard MacMahon (AMERICAN EPIC), and written by MacMahon and BAFTA® nominated producer Allison McGourty. It is produced by McGourty and Paradise Pictures in association with Big Beach, alongside executive producers Michael B Clark, Alex Turtletaub, Cynthia Heusing, David Kistenbroker, Duke Erikson, Simon Moran, and Ged Doherty. Editing is by Dan Gitlin, sound supervision is by Nick Bergh, sound restoration is by Grammy® Award winner Peter Henderson, with archival research from Kate Griffiths and Rich Remsberg.


Tickets are now on sale at www.becomingledzeppelinfilm.com.

ANAHEIM, CA January 27, 2023 – The She Rocks Awards concludes another incredible year of honoring groundbreaking women and innovators from across the music and audio industries with NAMM as the presenting partner.
The night started with an incredible performance by PRS Guitars artist Shantaia, followed by opening remarks from Women’s International Music Network and She Rocks Awards founder Laura Whitmore, which included acknowledging those affected by the recent Los Angeles fires. The show teamed up with NAMM’s Wildfire Relief Fund to collect donations at the event. The show also featured an exceptional performance of former honoree Starr Parodi and her daughter Isolde Maria Parodi Fair, who had just lost their family home in the fires in Pacific Palisades. Parodi was presented with a new She Rocks award to replace the one lost in the fires, and the two performed a mash-up of Fair’s song “Time Traveller” and Mama’s and Papa’s “California Dreaming.”

The She Rocks Awards have built a reputation for honoring women from all corners of the industry and genres, recognizing legends and up-and-comers. Honoree Alecia “Mixi” Demner of Stitched up Heart commented that this award was the first the band had received in their 15 years together, leading to a fiery performance where she was seen singing on tables in the crowd. 

Grammy winner and 2025 She Rocks Award Icon honoree Paula Cole moved the crowd with a stripped-down piano version of the multi-platinum-selling “I Don’t Wanna Wait.” In her profound acceptance speech, she spoke about the challenges of living the life of an artist and how, after seeing what she called an epidemic of low self-confidence in young women in the years she spent as a professor, she has now dedicated her life to empowering her girls and young women. She challenged the crowd to envision a world where girls are “shooting their hands up to ask the questions, express large opinions and taking their seat at the proverbial table, rocking boats and confidently ascending into leadership.”

Honoree Amanda Palmer gave a stunning speech about the power of volume in female voices, both loud and soft and the “freedom to be heard at any volume.” She also went to thank the female executives in the room who made gear and instruments that helped to amplify female voices. Her acceptance speech was followed by a moving performance of her powerful song “Voicemail for Jill.” Honorees from the C-Suite, such as Gibson Guitars CEO Beth Heidt and Chairman, President, and CEO of Shure Inc., Chris Schyvinck, spoke on the importance of mentorship and giving access to women in their speeches.
The night was rounded out by incredible performances by AIJIA, who performed with her husband, multi-platinum-selling artist Andy Grammer, and Lindsey Stirling, who was joined by up-and-coming violinist Christa. The night concluded with a bombastic performance by honorees Samantha Fish to close the night.
The full show can be viewed on the Women’s International Music Network YouTube channel.
