Jaden’s Place
Filling the gaps of life’s necessities.
“As a parent, it is very challenging for me to witness children like my son’s friend struggle to have their basic needs met. If my son at 9 years old could help his friend, what can I do as an adult to help these children? And Jaden’s Place was born”
– Ronald Adams, Founder of Jaden’s Place
About Us
Jaden's Place was inspired by my son, Jaden, who decided to help a friend and classmate constantly bullied because of his worn-down shoes. decided to give his friend a pair of shoes and some clothes to help prevent his friend from being bullied.
When Ronald (Jaden's father) found out, he became in awe of his son’s act of kindness and the amount of compassion Jaden had for his friend. Ronald decided to create Jaden’s Place to support the basic needs of children who continue to suffer in silence as a result of their family’s economic instability.
No child held back by
economic scarcity.
Jaden’s Place strives to create a community where a child’s academic success is not hindered by their family’s economic scarcity. Through community events and programs we provide school supplies, clothes, shoes, and consistent meals for children of low-income families to thrive in their academic journey. We aim to fill the gaps in life’s necessities, for the children of Paramount, CA, and the surrounding Los Angeles area.

About Jaden
Jaden Adams is my son and the true founder and inspiration behind Jaden’s Place. Jaden’s big heart and “take action” attitude has always led him to helping and standing up for friends in need, no questions asked.
When Jaden is not helping others and being an all-around awesome kid, you can find him on the basketball court and cheering on the Los Angeles Lakers!
I am truly honored to be his father and to have the opportunity to mold such an ambitious and thoughtful young man.
