This Giving Tuesday, LA2050 is doubling your impact by matching $10,000 in donations to organizations making a difference in Los Angeles.
We're matching gifts to any qualifying nonprofit organization listed on our My LA2050 Ideas Archive, up to $100 per donor. The Ideas Archive highlights all of the groups that have applied to the My LA2050 Grants Challenge over the last eight years. On the site, you’ll find almost 1,500 organizations that are working toward a better LA that can be searched by name, issue area, geography, and more.
If you're inspired to support an organization, we’d love to match your generosity. But hurry — this match only applies to the first $10,000 donated!

SHAWN ESCOFFERY | Executive Director,
Roy and Patricia Disney Family Foundation
My favorite Los Angeles places and spaces...
PLAY: There is nothing like a morning hike through Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area! From the Japanese garden to the duck pond complete with extremely territorial geese, there is beauty everywhere you look.
CREATE: The Sunday drum circle at Leimert Park is simply magical. The beating drums and the people dancing helps me recharge and give me new energy to start the week.
CONNECT: With photography as a side hustle, I enjoy exploring new neighborhoods and connecting with people in the LA street photographer scene.
LEARN: It's my third year in LA and I'm still learning a ton from all of the nonprofits we partner with working on social justice issues.
LIVE: Watching the sunset on the Santa Monica Pier is truly special. The sky turns a million shades of orange into purple into night as the ocean swallows the sun.
