Partnership for Growth LA is a Black & Jewish Community Development Corporation established to build sustainable community wellness and cooperative development among South and West Los Angeles. Partnership for Growth LA was founded by disruptors who listen and respond to the needs of the communities we serve.

PFGLA was founded in 2020 as a partnership between McCarty Memorial Christian Church (MMCC) and the Jewish Center for Justice (JCJ), to address core needs vital to community members’ quality of life, such as food access, job and economic security, primary education support, and workforce development.

PFGLA is built upon a rich history of Black and Jewish co-organizing, paying homage to the fight for fairness and justice during the Civil Rights movement. While our partnership is unique, it is not new.
