Aileen Getty Foundation
supports Quiet Time in
Los Angeles schools
An “Aspire” middle school in Los Angeles is now able to deliver the DLF’s Quiet Time program to more than 90 at-risk students, thanks to a generous donation from the Aileen Getty Foundation. Several of the students struggle with learning disabilities and even symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder.
The Getty Foundation donation also enabled DLF to continue its ongoing partnerships with New Village Charter High School, an innovative school offering personalized education for girls in a small class setting; Children of the Night, an internationally-respected teen shelter offering rehabilitation and high school education to victims of sex-trafficking; and an LA-based charter school offering over 500 indigenous students a rigorous course of study and knowledge of their native cultural values.
