Wendy Chang, Executive Director of the Dwight Stuart Youth Fund, has dedicated her career to empowering youth and strengthening communities across Los Angeles. For more than a decade, she has been a steadfast supporter of the Boys & Girls Clubs of West San Gabriel Valley and Eastside, helping to ensure that thousands of youth and families have access to the opportunities, guidance, and resources they need to thrive.

Her unwavering commitment was especially evident during the devastating LA fires, when she stood with us in our fire relief efforts for families and youth throughout the region who were impacted. Beyond this immediate response, Wendy’s ongoing partnership with youth-serving organizations across Los Angeles County has created lasting pathways to success for countless young people.

Wendy’s kindness, vision, and generosity align perfectly with the heart of our Kindness is Free Movement, inspiring us all to lead with compassion and purpose. For her extraordinary impact and enduring dedication, we are proud to honor Wendy Chang with this year’s Community Harmony Award.
