About Us
Conceived in 1997, the First Ladies High Tea was established to honor and elevate the vital role that first ladies and women of faith play in community service and the mentorship of young women. This signature event brings together influential female leaders—respected voices in the faith community who shape culture, drive change, and impact congregations ranging from 200 to over 10,000. With a focus on empowerment, leadership, and legacy, the High Tea serves as both a celebration and a catalyst for uplifting the next generation of women.
L.A. Focus Charities is dedicated to advancing equity and empowerment in underserved communities by leveraging the influence of the faith-based community. Through strategic outreach, education, and collaboration, we address pressing social challenges including health disparities, homelessness, and youth development.
