We've come a long way. But our progress should not conceal the enormous inequality that remains. We need new solutions. Innovative solutions. Solutions led by new leaders and new organizations.

That's why Uplifting Change exists. Join us.

Uplifting Change is Liberty Hill's initiative to connect local donor-activists and help them leverage community assets to strengthen Black Los Angeles through philanthropic investment in grassroots community organizing.

In February 2010, Liberty Hill hosted a transformative summit that convened African American donor-activists interested in investing in new solutions, strong leaders and effective organizations. Since that time, more than100 people have been inspired to become an active part of Liberty Hill’s Uplifting Change community.

Uplifting Change is anchored by an annual Summit held in February.

At the 2012 Uplifting Change Summit, participants will:

  1. Connect with an intimate group of donor-activists committed to advancing social justice and building a movement of African American philanthropy.
  2. Learn practical tools to leverage your giving to build stronger organizations and develop new leaders in the community.
  3. Hear from noted researchers about trends in African American philanthropy.
  4. Be inspired to move from blueprint to action.

If you are ready to increase your philanthropic impact, join us for the Summit AND the Luncheon for $175.  Interested in the luncheon only, purchase a ticket for $100.  Purchase now.
