Entertainment Community Fund

Our partner

For more than a century, the Entertainment Community Fund has supported performing arts and entertainment professionals through housing, social services, financial assistance, healthcare, and workforce programs. In California, the Fund is expanding that mission through investments that help creative workers — who are central to the cultural identity and economic vitality of the State — remain rooted in the communities where they live and work.

How we helped

Daley Strategies supports the Entertainment Community Fund in strategic relationship-building and funding advocacy to help the Fund advance its Southern California projects and identify new opportunities for affordable housing and community investment. Our team also provides guidance on navigating Los Angeles and California’s complex policy, funding, and permitting landscape.

Highlights

The Entertainment Community Fund’s landmark Los Angeles project, the Hollywood Arts Collective, is a two-building campus combining the State’s largest affordable housing building for artists and their families with an arts building featuring performance, rehearsal, and meeting spaces serving the arts community. Daley Strategies has helped build support for the project among key federal, state, and local leaders. Our work has also opened doors to potential affordable housing opportunities in communities across Southern California, extending the Fund’s vision beyond Hollywood.
