The Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable announced its Impact Micro Awards for December on Friday, December 9. It will make the most awards to date in a single month. The December awards will bring the total to 25 awards made since the start of the program in June, 2011. The Impact Micro Awards are made to support organizations and individuals that have a proven track record of commitment to building community sustainability projects, activities, and service. The micro awards are given monthly. Wells Fargo Foundation is a major partner with the Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable Impact Award Program.
The December award recipients are: Molly’s Mutts and Meows (Jennifer Charnofsky), the Children’s Dental Center of Los Angeles, Save Africa’s Children, the Friendship House of San Francisco, Angels for Sight (Lena Cole Dennis), and the Los Angeles Youth Orchestra. These groups and community establishments are building sustainable communities through their work to meet the medical needs of children and senior citizens, care and nurture in need African children, combat alcohol abuse among American Indians, defend animal rights, and mentor and train young musicians. These organizations have shown by their work and example their unswerving dedication to building sustainable communities. Their mission, work and accomplishments are spotlighted on the Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable website:http://losangelesurbanpolicyroundtable.blogspot.com/
“Budget cutbacks, the sharp increase in poverty, and the on-going struggle of small community service groups for funding have made it more imperative that we help fill the funding gap to boost them in their efforts to build community sustainability in under-served communities,” says Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable President Earl Ofari Hutchinson, “The Impact Micro Awards aim to further community self-reliance and independence. This is the pathway to citizen empowerment.”
The Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable will make its next Impact Awards in January. Information and nominations for the Impact Awards
