SoCalGas Volunteers Celebrate Lunar New Year with Seniors at Angelus Plaza

Feb 26, 2026

More than a dozen SoCalGas employees joined the Retirement Housing Foundation (RHF) at Angelus Plaza in Downtown Los Angeles last week to help bring joy and community to over 200 senior residents during its annual Lunar New Year celebration.

As a longtime partner of RHF, SoCalGas has proudly supported this event for many years, helping seniors who call Angelus Plaza home feel connected and celebrated during one of the most important cultural holidays of the year.

This year’s festivities were filled with bright cultural performances, music, traditional treats, and time spent with residents. SoCalGas employee volunteers helped distribute food, greet attendees, and assist with activities throughout the afternoon.

“We are deeply grateful to SoCalGas for once again sponsoring our Lunar New Year celebration and for showing up with such enthusiasm and heart,” said Shelley Ryan, director of philanthropy at Retirement Housing Foundation. “Their volunteers helped make the event truly special for our residents, bringing smiles, sharing cultural traditions, and ensuring more than 200 seniors felt seen and celebrated. Our longstanding partnership with SoCalGas continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of the people we serve.”

“Celebrating Lunar New Year at Angelus Plaza reminded me of the power of community,” said SoCalGas participant Rena Wong. “Seeing the joy on residents’ faces as we handed out food and shared in the festivities was incredibly meaningful. It’s a privilege to represent SoCalGas at events like these.” For decades, RHF has provided affordable housing and supportive services to older adults across Southern California, and SoCalGas is proud to continue strengthening its partnership through acts of service like this one.
