Gang Alternatives Program (GAP) is a 501(c)(3) empowering thousands of youth and families across LA communities such as Watts, Wilmington, El Sereno, San Pedro, Harbor City, and Boyle Heights.

The Gang Alternatives Program (GAP), is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and every day, GAP’s positive impact is felt by thousands of youths and families in our diverse communities of color in and around the Los Angeles Area – from Watts to Wilmington, El Sereno to San Pedro, and Harbor City to Boyle Heights. In addition, GAP’s graffiti removal program provides an important service to businesses and individuals in our communities, abating over 8 million square feet of graffiti annually and cleaning up tons of trash and blight and beautifying our communities.

GAP’s vision is to PREVENT young people from joining gangs, and its mission is to provide learning and growth opportunities in a supportive environment that prepares youths to say “No” to gangs and “Yes” to positive lifestyle choices.

We invite you to participate! Proceeds from this fundraiser will be utilized to help keep kids out of gangs and graffiti off of our streets. My Gangfree Life® is nationally acclaimed, and has received both national and international awards from the National Gang Crime Research Center (NGCRC). GAP has been a recognized as long standing community based partner serving the City of Los Angeles since 1986. However, our work is never done, and we need your support to keep our program vital, and to continue to expand and standardize our primary prevention programs in our city and around the country.
