Renovation of Youth Center’s Laundry Room and Closet featured in P&G and iHeartMedia’s Can’t Cancel Pride 2024 – with a focus on showing impact in communities 

Los Angeles- June 11, 2024- iHeartMedia and Paris Hilton’s 11:11 Media Impact, the social impact arm of her next-gen media & consumer lifestyle company, joined forces to renovate spaces including the laundry room and closet at the Los Angeles LGBT Center, with the help of Emmy-winning design expert Bobby Berk who led the redesign. The Center is the world’s largest queer-serving nonprofit organization that provides safe space and services for LGBTQ+ people that span four broad categories: Health, Social Services and Housing, Culture and Education, and Leadership and Advocacy.

Paris Hilton and Bobby Berk were in attendance at the Center for the reveal of the makeover on May 23. The full reveal will be part of iHeartMedia and P&G’s Can’t Cancel Pride, a show streaming on June 12 that recognizes the impact both music and LGBTQ+ organizations have on the community, and raises funds and visibility for GLAAD, SAGE, The Trevor Project, the National Black Justice Coalition, CenterLink and Outright International.

Paris Hilton’s 11:11 Media Impact grants life-changing wishes, providing hope and fostering lasting positive impacts through direct service, special experiences, and transformative projects.  Hilton joined Can’t Cancel Pride to show community support and provide a “wish” in her own backyard. Together with iHeartMedia, they selected one of Can’t Cancel Pride’s beneficiaries, the LBGT Center in Los Angeles, part of CenterLink.

iHeartMedia and Paris Hilton focused efforts on highly visited areas of the Center, which offers showers, laundry service, food and clothes to LGBTQ+ youth to help them get back on their feet. Can’t Cancel Pride and Paris Hilton funded and redesigned the main dressing and laundry facilities, designed by Bobby Berk, including much needed new washing and drying machines, a supply of Tide and Downy donated by P&G, a complete renovation of the space, and clothes donated by IHL Group, Fabletics, and other brands in the closet.

The full reveal of the new youth center will be featured during Can’t Cancel Pride, streaming on iHeartRadio’s YouTube and Facebook pages, Hulu and Revry on June 12 at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT and will be available to stream throughout Pride Month.
