One of the most heartwarming highlights of the Garden Party? The Zoomba performance by our amazing clients and our longtime friends at @zsquadtorrance! 💃🌿
@zsquadtorrance has been such an incredible supporter of ICAN for years, hosting free Zumba classes at Wilson Park in Torrance that our clients look forward to every week. So it was extra special to have them join us at the Garden Party for a performance they choreographed together with our clients!
Thank you, Z Squad, for bringing the energy, the joy, and the moves and for always showing up for ICAN. We love this partnership!
It takes a village to make the Garden Party happen and we’re so thankful for ours! 🌿💛
From setting up tables to running booths, welcoming guests to packing up at the end, our incredible volunteers showed up in every way to help bring this special event to life.
Whether you helped behind the scenes or were there on the big day, thank you for giving your time, energy, and heart to support our mission. We truly couldn’t have done it without you!
We’re still feeling the love from this year’s Garden Party! 🌿💛
While so many amazing sponsors helped make the event possible, we want to give a special shoutout to a few whose support brought key elements of the day to life:
🎶📸 MCT - for sponsoring both the live band and the ICAN Photo Booth
🍦🍗 @Chipcookies.torrance , @handelslongbeach / @handelsdowney , and @raisingcanes - for keeping the party fueled with sweet treats and delicious snacks
🌸 Fleur de Lys Flower Shop - for providing the stunning floral elements that made our flower photo wall truly unforgettable
We’re so grateful to each of you for helping us create such a fun and memorable experience for our community. Your support means the world! 💐
🍦 Cones for a Cause is coming up and it’s the sweetest way to support ICAN Summer Camp!
Join us on Wednesday, June 18th at @handelslongbeach (4201 McGowen St, Long Beach, CA 90808) for a birthday celebration and fundraiser in honor of our Executive Director, Scott Elliott — a man who really loves ice cream 🍨🎉

Mark your calendars, bring a friend, and let’s scoop for a cause!
One of the most exciting moments from the Garden Party?
☕️ The official reveal of our brand new @ICANCoffee Trailer! 🎉
This project has been brewing since 2023 and was made possible through an incredible collaboration between ICAN and the brilliant Architecture & Civil Engineering students at @davincischools_org. Together, we dreamed up and brought to life a mobile coffee trailer that not only delivers caffeine but also empowers lives.
We’re thrilled to announce that this trailer will soon make its home just outside the Torrance Katy Geissert Civic Center Library, bringing consistent access to ICAN Coffee and even more employment opportunities for our amazing clients.
Follow @icancoffee to stay updated on launch details, and if you`re interested in hiring our ICAN Coffee cart for your next event, send us a DM or email us at coffee@ican.org.
Here’s to bold brews, bigger opportunities, and a future fueled by purpose. 💛🚐☕
One of our favorite Garden Party traditions? 🌸
Our photo flower wall; a living wall of beauty that’s been the backdrop to so many unforgettable memories over the years.
Each year, we spend time thoughtfully crafting this space so our guests can pause, snap a photo, and take home a smile. We love seeing all the joy and laughter that shows up in front of this wall. Just look at these beautiful faces!
