2022 Impact Report

Putting A Passion For Justice Into Action

Donor Activists

Hill

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. We couldn’t do this work without their support.

Donor Activist Spotlight
Andy Bartholomew

Championing the Next Generation of Donor Activists

Donor Activist Andy Bartholomew is thinking about the future, but he’s not waiting for some far off day on the horizon to start making an impact. After getting involved with a group called Resource Generation—which is dedicated to helping young adults with wealth and class privilege commit to equitable distribution of wealth, land, and power—he started thinking about his own potential to make a difference at an earlier age. His focus on the social justice landscape, giving to organizations fighting for systemic changes—and led by the people most impacted by injustice—is what led him to Liberty Hill. And now he’s thinking about the entire concept of philanthropy differently.

When it comes to his giving, Andy has been strategic and intentional about making an impact on causes close to his heart by supporting Liberty Hill and the organizations and activists on the frontlines of issues such as environmental, youth, and housing justice.

I believe you don’t have to wait for the future to come to you. As young people, we can get involved now and start investing in the future we want to create today. And Liberty Hill is a great place to do that.

We are deeply grateful for the unwavering commitment of Liberty Hill’s longtime donor activists and funding partners and the many individuals and organizations that began new partnerships with Liberty Hill during this critical moment in history.

Together, we are bending the Arc towards justice.
