Give. Hope. Share. Change.

The Urban Infant connects, supports, and donates to a small, strategically-selected assortment of charities. There is one common thread of these relationships: they are serving children less fortunate. In most cases, the charity is even changing the trajectory of a child’s life. Each of our charities is hand-picked, comprised of workers that feel more like family, and fill our office and corporate culture with hope. 

"In most cases, the charities we select can change the trajectory of a child’s life."

Fostering Hope
Every child deserves to feel joy. Fostering Hope serves kids, pre-teens, teens and young adults whose lives are directly impacted by foster care. Their programs focus on small experiences that most of us are not aware of when being raised in a traditional household. Such experiences can include birthday parties, health and wellness, and simple community events helping provide a sense of neighborhood. Their goals include helping children overcome self-esteem issues or possible isolation that can arrive from being in the foster program.

ReFresh Collective
The goal of this innovative Cleveland-based program is to harness the power of music to better equip youth and uplift communities. Their music-inspired programming is provided free of charge to underserved neighborhoods. Last year, they worked with over 480 kids in 4 school districts in their neighborhood studios in Cleveland and Cincinnati. Their performances take place from street fairs to concert halls and have been in cities such as Chicago, Cleveland, and Atlanta.
