Supporting Justice for All

Donor Activists

Hill

The Home for Progressive Los Angeles

Our fight to ensure justice for all is a collective one. We call Liberty Hill the Home for Progressive Los Angeles because we have always been a beacon for those who want to support the democratization of
philanthropy. Whether you are a longtime Donor Activist or new to Liberty Hill—you are making a difference by supporting this critical work. We couldn’t make change possible without you!

Liberty Hill Donor Activists

Our Donor Activists put their passion into action to help make Los Angeles a more just and equitable place. Their generous unrestricted gifts allow us to continue to power the grassroots movements shaping LA. Whether they are sending postcards in support of youth development, signing petitions to end oil drilling across the county, or attending our events to raise funds to support this critical work, Liberty Hill’s Donor Activists show up for social justice!
