CHANGING THE STREETS ONE HEARTBEAT AT A TIME.
Pauly's Project strives to improve the lives of homeless individuals and families in the outskirts of Downtown Los Angeles by donating food, water, and essential supplies on a monthly basis.
OUR STORY
Lifting the spirits of the homeless through music.
Paul Avila’s son, Pauly, born blind and autistic, could only be calmed with the sound of music in his ears. As a young boy, Paul would accompany his mother to Downtown Los Angeles to bring food and clothes to his uncle on skid row. Remembering how good he felt when he gave food and clothing to the less fortunate; it was a feeling of accomplishment. This feeling stayed with Paul as he grew up.
