A BILLION–DOLLAR
COMMITMENT
TO THE FUTURE OF LOS ANGELES
We promise to grant $1 billion to Los Angeles County non profits by 2025. Since making this commitment in 2015, we and our donors have given more than $448 million to thousands of organizations and causes throughout Los Angeles County. Whether for housing or education, arts or disaster relief, these gifts are building abetter Los Angeles for all of us.
Our mission is to make positive systemic change that strengthens Los Angeles communities. To achieve it, we must partner with others to move the needle on some of L.A.’s most intractable challenges like ensuring quality education, expanding affordable housing, promoting healthy communities and protecting the rights and families of our immigrant neighbors. The four stories that follow describe the progress we have made by joining public-private partnerships across our priority areas.
We are inspired by the individuals and groups who collaborate to address local problems with innovative solutions. Every story is unique, but one thing weaves them all together. The outcomes they create depend on the passion, motivation and selflessness of countless donors, nonprofits and community and government leaders
