About Us
This is our calling. Our village incubates dreams and future leaders. We don't stop at a nurturing environment, we intentionally carve out and engage opportunities that tactically allow our youth to grow and thrive beyond our village.
We help launch our community in three programatic offerings:
1."Fight For Something" College Scholarship
2. Urban Village KLUB
3. Fiscal sponsorship and program incubation

The Urban Village is proud to offer fiscal sponsorship to emerging organizations within the Karen and Karenni communities. We provide seed money, oversight, administrative support, and growth training to groups whose mission aligns with our own.
