Some of the children are unwanted and have become &#8220;throw-aways&#8221;, like yesterday&#8217;s trash. It&#8217;s one of the saddest situations to know that among the wealth and privilege seen in California, many innocent\u00a0children are ignored and abused. A special event fundraiser on March 21, 2015, 6 p.m. at the LAX Westin\u00a0Hotel has been organized by a nonprofit in association with Loyola Marymount University Internship Program, El Camino College Teen Program, Professional Social Workers, and local politicians.
