  • WARMING UP:

    CODE DIESEL

    We hear so much talk about the lack of diversity in the tech sector. Is this really so hard to solve? In partnership with CoderDojo, we will train minority high school students during the upcoming academic year and then facilitate housing in Silicon Valley for summer internships. Done.

  • PARTNERSHIPS

    LEARN, EAT HEALTHY, & EARN

    Designed by the Andrew Young Foundation, this project, in partnership with the Young Family YMCA in Atlanta and Rust College in Mississippi, will train high school and college students to manage a sustainable aquaponics enterprise. Land has already been provided, so funds will be used to purchase the greenhouses and other equipment necessary to immediately implement the program.

  • IN DEVELOPMENT

    FAIRE/SHARE VENTURE LABS

    Our innovative business "incuvator" will equip unproven but ambitious early-stage urban entrepreneurs with startup services, legal counseling, design assistance, crowdfunding support, and year-round access to “Silicon Valley” styled workspaces. As we know, there is no shortage of brilliant ideas, and we want to ensure the ones that emerge from places like New Orleans, Chicago, Ferguson, and Baltimore have a chance to flourish. With your support, we'll pilot this project in Los Angeles and scale it thereafter.

  • PREPPING:

    THE ACADEMIC ALL-STAR CELEBRATION

    When do we stand and cheer – as a community – for the students who have performed exactly the way we’ve asked? The answer is rarely. As such, we are sounding a clarion call to offer our country an opportunity to make a cultural statement about the things which, ostensibly, matter most: the education and healthy development of our young people.

    THE LA ARTS RESOLVE!

    THE LA ARTS RESOLVE! is our response to the recent LA Times study exposing the dearth of quality arts programs in LA public schools. We will partner with those numerous schools receiving a "D" or "F" score and help address their deficiencies by fortifying existing arts efforts or by designing and funding original arts programs on par with the very best in the world.
