Councilmember Tom LaBonge, affectionately known as “Mr. Los Angeles,” famously drove his pickup truck through the city looking for everyday problems he could help solve. Though he’s no longer behind the wheel, his spirit lives on!

Five years ago, our department established the Tom LaBonge Day of Service to honor his legacy—a highlight of our annual Week. This Saturday marked 5 years of both! 🌟

Hosted at the iconic Crenshaw Christian Center in the Vermont Corridor, we joined the LaBonge family’s Tom LaBonge Civic Project alongside Council President Harris-Dawson staff and Mayor Karen Bass’s Shine LA initiative. A special moment of the morning included Mayor Bass paying tribute to the esteemed Dr. Betty Price for her dedicated leadership and service.
Afterward, our team worked alongside a massive turnout of volunteers and community partners to clean up neighborhoods across South LA. Together, we put into practice!

Special thanks to our hosts and partners: Mayor Karen Bass • Marqueece Harris-Dawson • LA Sanitation & Environment | Public Works • Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority • EIFM🔹CCC • The SEED School of Los Angeles County (SEED LA) • All Colors One Love Foundation •
