Breathe Southern California

Breathe Southern California Breathe SoCal promotes clean air and healthy lungs through education, advocacy, and technology.

Breathe Southern California has a long history of public health engagement aligned with its 100 year-old mission to improve air quality and lung health through education, research and advocacy. Formed in 1903 to address the epidemic of tuberculosis and other lung-related diseases, the organization’s education and outreach efforts have resulted in significant reductions in incidences of TB and more stringent smoking laws.

This past weekend, we had the opportunity to join Discovery Cube Los Angeles for their amazing Health Fair! 🫁💙

We spent the day connecting with families and sharing the importance of lung health. We provided free lung screenings for adults and created a hands-on activity where kids could learn about how we breathe and see how asthma can affect airflow.

A special thank you to East Los Angeles College RT PEEPS 🫁🫁 who helped conduct the spirometry screenings and supported us throughout the event. 🫁✨

The school year has begun, but learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. 🎒💙

For families in Boyle Heights, cleaner air at home can help create a healthier, more comfortable environment where children can study, rest, and grow.

Breathe Southern California continues to provide air purifiers, clean-air education, lung-health resources, and direct support to families affected by the Lineage warehouse fire. But this work depends on community support.

Through September 4, every donation will be matched dollar for dollar, helping your gift make twice the impact.

Together, we can help Boyle Heights breathe easier.

Although the Boyle Heights warehouse fire has been extinguished, its effects are still being felt by many residents—even beyond the borders of Boyle Heights. We are deeply grateful to the City of Montebello for partnering with us to distribute 500 air purifiers to residents in Montebello and surrounding neighborhoods and cities. We couldn’t have achieved this without their support. Together, we’re helping people breathe easier.

🎒✏️ Clean air belongs on every back-to-school checklist.

As families prepare for a new school year, simple steps, like replacing air filters, using a HEPA air purifier, reducing indoor allergens, and keeping asthma medications accessible—can help create a healthier place to learn, rest, and grow.

For families in Boyle Heights and surrounding communities affected by poor air quality, these protections are especially important. Your donation helps Breathe Southern California provide free HEPA air purifiers, lung-health education, and trusted clean-air resources to families who need them most.
