Sharefest Community Development, Inc

Sharefest gives youth facing significant barriers the skills, support, and connections they need to achieve economic success. Throughout LAUSD students on the verge of dropping out find themselves on the fringe of the education system. Since 2009 Sharefest has been the only community-based organization consistently working inside schools with youth who are under-served, under-resourced AND underestimated. Sharefest empowers them with life skills and professional development and helps them build a pathway to a life-changing career. Sharefest pours more resources into each student than schools and other organizations can. Following a student from high school into college or the workforce is simply the most effective way for youth to achieve economic mobility and success.
