City2Shore Cycle 4 Life, Do, Grow urban farming
Want to join us in making a difference? Through cycling or donating or spreading the word?

We're raising money to benefit Urban Creators' Life Do Grow urban farm in the heart of North Philly on the ancestral lands of the indigenous Lenni-Lenape. Any donation will help make an impact. We're going to cycle 120 miles round-trip from Collingswood, NJ to Atlantic City, NJ and back over two days in October 2023. Help us raise $25 for every mile to get to our goal of $3,000. How many miles can you help us ride?

Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.

More information about Urban Creators: The Urban Creators is a North Philadelphia-based organization that uses food, art, and transformative education as tools to inspire holistic community and youth development. We activate urban communities by transforming neglected landscapes into urban farms, safe-spaces, and dynamic public venues that foster connectivity, self-sufficiency, and innovation.

Urban Creators DOME-Raiser!!
Help us raise $10K to install our brand new GEO-Dome at Life DO Grow in Spring 2018!!

Since 2010, the Urban Creators have worked hand-in-hand with our neighborhood in the evolution of Life Do Grow Farm. The one thing we have been missing, however, is an indoor space. But thanks to our partnership with PHL Assembled, we will be installing a brand new 30ft Geodesic Dome at Life Do Grow!

With your help, we will be able to install and retrofit the FREE(DOME) in the spring of 2018 to house our programming, events, and more!

Help us by supporting the FREE(DOME) campaign, and launching the Urban Creators into the future!

BEE THE CHANGE
The Urban Creators is moving into our 7th year of operation, continuing to serve the North Philadelphia community through food, art, and celebration. In fact, since our founding in 2010, the Part 1 Violent Crime rate in the surrounding neighborhood as dropped by 40%!

We have transformed Life Do Grow Farm into a vibrant learning space quite literally full of life with the help of our neighbors and especially our teens.

We are raising money to extend our Summer Youth Leadership Program so we can engage with our teens throughout the year!

Every year, we sponsor around twenty teen in a comprehensive program where they learn work and life skills through a range of activities, workshops, trainings, and events covering topics such as:

Urban Agriculture
Community Organizing
Construction
Landscaping
Financial Literacy
Entrepreneurship
Community Design & Revitalization
Event Planning

With your help and support of our first ever fundraising campaign, #BeeTheChange, we hope to expand our program to a year-around ciriculum to extend our engagement and development of the next generation of Urban Creators!
