We’re not just offering programs.
We’re changing trajectories.

In the heart of Los Angeles’ most overlooked neighborhoods, UrbanPromise LA is walking alongside children and teens—guiding, equipping, and believing in them every step of the way.

Our model is simple, but transformational. We Call It the Cycle of Restoration.

  • Reach a Child with consistent care, academic intervention, and joyful experiences.

  • Raise a Leader through paid high school leadership roles, college access coaching, and faith-based mentoring.

  • Restore Community by equipping youth to give back, serve others, and create lasting impact in their own neighborhoods.

From homework help to college scholarships, from summer camp to first jobs, our programs are a full-circle investment in the next generation of Angelenos.

This is what hope for the future looks like.
