Every year, we invite industry partners, supporters, and friends to purchase  tribute ads in the Career Achievement Journal in celebration of a chosen honoree’s outstanding career while helping Variety continue its life-changing work for Southern California’s most vulnerable children.

Our sponsors’ support not only salutes a remarkable individual but also ensures that more children get the care, access, and opportunities they deserve. The journal is shared widely with community leaders, entertainment professionals, and our dedicated network of supporters — providing both meaningful impact and valuable visibility.

To date, Variety has published eighteen journals and raised over $7 million to benefit children with special needs.
