• Family to Family Support
  • New for 2025/2026 the MVPs are hoping to develop a grass-roots community based, volunteer support network for families experiencing hardships.  In the past 5 years we have experienced a pandemic, natural disasters, and other difficult situations in our Central Coast area that can deeply affect our children. We see an opportunity to rally together and show the generosity, spirit, and resilience of our Mar Vista Sea Lion community. Please reach out to us at aptosmvps@gmail.com  if you are undergoing a hardship, and need support with items such as groceries, laundry, a prepared meal to get through a tough time or loss, or other basics that volunteers can provide in real time. Please know that your message to the MVPs will be confidential, and we will reach out to you directly and discreetly to coordinate support.
