We Love Long Beach – Building Blocks of Connection & Care.

our mission

We Love Long Beach is a community building nonprofit, (501c3) that loves to connect neighbors of all ages together on their blocks and within their complexes to create a stronger feeling of belonging and greater shared well-being we call neighborliness.

Initiative #1: Seasonal Citywide Parties that every resident is encouraged and equipped to host their neighbors on their block or complex.
* Citywide Breakfast
* Citywide Ice Cream Social

Initiative #2: Play Streets Long Beach’s purpose is to encourage and equip residents to temporarily shut down their street, so that families and neighbors can play outside in the street safely and freely together.

In doing so, Play Streets LB will enhance community connection, neighborhood safety, the benefits play-based learning for children, and greater overall public health.

Initiative #3: We have started igniting Neighborhood Groups within neighborhoods. Currently we have We Love LB Moms, Rad Dads, We Love LB Yarn Society, Young at Heart (60+ Group) & We Love LB Dogs 101 with Sit Happens. If you have group you would like to see in your neighborhood, let us know.

We are partnering with Sit Happens Dog Training to bring Dog 101 Training classes to neighborhoods throughout Long Beach. You must sign up to attend the class. All classes begin at 10:00am. If you would like us to come to your neighborhood next, email us and we will get a date on the calendar!

Next available class date: TBD (We have paused classes until 2024 out of precaution to avoid the contagious virus going around in pups.)

Classes are free to attend, however, donations are appreciated.
