In many societies individuals receive new names to redirect their path, strengthen their purpose and sustain their legacy. The time has come for our organization to adopt a new name that honors the communal heartbeat of our board, donors, grantees, community partners and the communities we serve. Our blueprint is inspired by the early philanthropy of Lupe Fiasco and his love for Chicago communities and youth.
With this scaffolding in place and the continued support of Wasalu Muhammad Jaco aka Lupe Fiasco, we move forward to magnify urban realities and affect the lives of youth and communities we serve. We seek to create murals that bring people together to create new images on blank or existing canvases. Adhering to our same mission, we will provide healthy food options in urban communities and passports in young hands that are only familiar with public transportation cards and so much more.
We present M.U.R.A.L (Magnifying Urban Realities and Affecting Lives) formerly known as the Lupe Fiasco Foundation. I encourage you to continue to sketch, paint and grow with us as we turn another page in our philanthropic blueprint.
