- My Block, My Hood, My City works with underserved neighborhoods in Chicago to inspire youth, empower communities, and build a better world one block at a time.
- The Brokerage, a social mobility charity that works with young people and employers to drive positive change in the workplace and believes in equal access to opportunities irrespective of background or race.
