Every year, thousands of Angelenos face hunger, homelessness, and hopelessness. On October 18, 2025, two of Los Angeles’ most trusted nonprofits — Hope the Mission and Los Angeles Mission — joined forces for a night of unity, inspiration, and hope at BMO Stadium.
The event, Hope in the City of Angels, brought together community leaders, advocates, and organizations committed to helping those most in need.
Elevated Deck Systems proudly participated as a Platinum Sponsor, joining an incredible lineup of supporters dedicated to building stronger foundations for Los Angeles.
Two Missions, One Purpose — A Greater Impact
Founded out of a van in the San Fernando Valley, Hope the Mission has grown to become the largest rescue mission in the United States, providing meals, shelter, and essential services to thousands of individuals and families every day.
Since 1936, Los Angeles Mission has served the Skid Row community with compassion and commitment, offering food, housing, and programs focused on long-term recovery and dignity.
Together, these two organizations provide over 3 million meals and 750,000 nights of shelter each year — proof that collaboration can create a greater impact for those who need it most.
Elevated Deck Systems: Committed to Building Strong Foundations
At Elevated Deck Systems, we believe in more than building decks — we believe in building communities.
Supporting the Hope the Mission Gala aligns with our company’s values of stability, structure, and sustainability.
Just as our pedestal systems and decking solutions create solid foundations for elevated spaces, organizations like Hope the Mission and Los Angeles Mission build strong foundations for people — offering safety, stability, and a second chance.
EDS joined other key sponsors including U.S. Bank, OMNI Healthcare, Johnny Carson Foundation, and The Robert Margolis Foundation, all working together to help transform lives in the City of Angels.
Elevated Deck Systems honored as a Platinum Sponsor supporting Hope the Mission.
A Night of Hope and Inspiration
Guests gathered for a red carpet evening filled with music, stories, and purpose. Attendees enjoyed live DJs, powerful real-life testimonials from formerly unhoused individuals, and special honors recognizing the incredible work being done across Los Angeles.
Music legend Dave Grohl was honored for his ongoing volunteer work, personally preparing and serving meals to those experiencing homelessness and food insecurity.
Dennis Oleesky, CEO of Los Angeles Mission, was also recognized for his leadership and lifelong service to the community.
Special guest Jeff Probst joined the evening to celebrate the collective effort that continues to bring real change to Los Angeles.
A Shared Purpose
As the lights shone across BMO Stadium, one message stood out — when local organizations and businesses unite, hope becomes tangible.
For Elevated Deck Systems, supporting Hope the Mission means contributing to something far larger than a single event. It’s about helping create stability — whether through architecture, partnerships, or human compassion.
Looking Forward
Elevated Deck Systems is grateful to have shared this inspiring evening with so many who care deeply about Los Angeles’ future.
We’re honored to stand alongside Hope the Mission, Los Angeles Mission, and all who are working to provide homes, meals, and dignity for our neighbors in need.
