LOS ANGELES, Oct. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- L.A. Works, Los Angeles' largest nonprofit dedicated to harnessing volunteer power, is excited to announce that Angel City Football Club (ACFC) will sponsor the Family Volunteering Zone of the 2025 MLK Volunteer Festival, scheduled for January 20, 2025 at the iconic Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
