Nearly 500 parents and children attended the Angelic Auxiliary of Children’s Bureau carnival festivities at Pacific Park on Sunday, March 9. The event raised over $100,000 for Children’s Bureau’s child abuse prevention and treatment programs. The Angelic Auxiliary was established in 1997 and is comprised of socially conscious women from the Westside, including benefit co-chairs Karen Enzer of Pacific Palisades and Westwood resident Gretchen Theodore.
