Uplifters Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit homebuilder dedicated to helping the most vulnerable victims of the Eaton and Palisades wildfires rebuild not just their homes—but their lives. We believe that true recovery goes beyond construction. Builders must preserve neighborhood character, honor residents’ choices, and foster long-term community resilience.
We raise equity through private bond placements and rebuild homes in Altadena and Pacific Palisades that are designed to be attainable to the people who were displaced by the fires. While other organizations are focused on immediate relief, Uplifters Foundation focuses on laying the groundwork for the long-term rebuilding effort.
We do not maximize profits, we maximize the value and attainability of a home to the community we are rebuilding. The net proceeds from these sales will not go to shareholders, but will fund public facilities and infrastructure that will benefit the surrounding communities including playgrounds, parks, and improved utilities. Uplifters Foundation prioritizes community-focused re-building in Altadena and Pacific Palisades.
We provide homeowners the opportunity for a fair exit, not a fire sale.
Our homes are designed to reflect the original scale, diversity, and architecture of the neighborhood—blending new construction with each neighborhood's unique charm. Our homes will vary in size and layout to support different household types.
The completed homes will first be offered at a discounted price to former residents of the community, in recognition of their commitment to return to the neighborhood they were displaced from.
Uplifters Foundation creates a new disaster relief rebuild model—a replicable playbook for communities across wildfire-prone regions in California and beyond.
