Julian Omidi formed No More Poverty in order to not only help those around the world but also those at home in Los Angeles. Julian Omidi is fulfilling his desire to help children suffering in the greater Los Angeles area by providing support to organizations like Children's Lifesaving Foundation. 

When my brother Michael Omidi and I began our non-profit organization our goal was to aid those suffering from poverty around the world, a goal that we continue to strive for through support of various charities like Drop in the Bucket and Simone's Kids. We also believed fully that helping children suffering in the Los Angeles area, a city that we call home, was imperative to our cause. This is why we have provided assistance to charities such as A Place Called Home and Under the Bridges & On the Streets. 

We are excited to announce that we are now providing support to another charity based in Los Angeles that helps the impoverished; whether that be at-risk youth or low-income and homeless families called the Children's Lifesaving Foundation. 

Children's Lifesaving Foundation has served over 50,000 children and thousands of additional families in Los Angeles through its many multifaceted programs. some of these programs include:

• Adopt-A-Family - This program helps to move homeless families out of shelters and into new homes in order to provide them with stability. These families become permanent members of their foundation family. 
  
• Kids Helping Kids - This program is aimed at children aiding other school-aged kids in getting the school supplies, books, and backpacks they need to succeed and excel in school. 
  

Other programs include their Camp4All and Project Angel Wings programs. 

Please get involved with this organization today so that families suffering in the Los Angeles can find some relief and help. 

No More Poverty is a non-profit organization founded by my brother Michael Omidi and I, Julian Omidi. We know that poverty does not afflict people in any one way and that it can affect people in facets ranging from homelessness to lack of education to hunger and lack of heatlhcare. 

We have supported a variety of charities from those that aid children in Uganda to those that fund sports programs for inner city children. We are proud to announce that we are now a supporter of Create Now, which mentors children in Southern California in the creative arts. 

Create now is a program that serves vulnerable kids and young adults from age 2 to 25. These individuals have been orphaned, left homeless, abandoned and neglected, have become teen parents or runaways, developed substance abuse and dependence, become gang members or been incarcerated to name but a few of the problems these youth have been affected by. 

Create Now then matches these children and young adults with a mentor that can teach them how to create through music, theater, and art. These kids are then provided with the opportunity to show and perform their works to the public. 

This is such a great cause, as the arts have been proven to be a great creative outlet for anyone, especially those who have gone through traumatic events in their lives.
At No More Poverty we encourage you to get involved and support this noble charity. Visit our Facebook page to get the latest updates and get involved with charities like Create Now. 

Omidi Brothers Michael and Julian Omidi support the efforts of A Place Called Home. Omidi Brothers Julian and Michael Omidi formed the not-for-profit organization No More Poverty to aid those suffering from poverty around the world and at home and through A Place Called Home they can aid those living in South Central Los Angeles. 

South Central Los Angeles has unfortunately become synonymous with urban decay due to its depiction in films such as John Singleton's Boyz n the Hood and Menace II Society as well as picture painted by N.W.A.'s famous album Straight Outta Compton. As a result of the decline of manufacturing in the area beginning in the 1970's the area saw a precipitous decline into street gangs and street crime, poverty, drugs, and riots. 

But many good and hardworking people reside in South Central Los Angeles, people that struggle to keep their children out of gangs and in school with very few resources at their disposal to ensure that their children find opportunity and, most importantly, safety. 

A Place Called Home is an organization in South Central Los Angeles that aids underserved youth and families by providing a safe haven for support, inspiration, and opportunity so that these youth can take charge of the direction and quality of their lives. 

A Place Called Home provides:

• Educational Services
• Health, Nutrition, and Well-Being Services
• Community and Volunteer Initiatives
• Recreation and Athletics Programs
• Programs for Creative Expression in Music, Dance, and Fine Arts
• And More

The not-for-profit organization I founded with my brother Dr. Michael Omidi, is aimed at providing those caught up in the cycle of poverty to find solutions and A Place Called Home provides solutions for the impoverished in South Central Los Angeles. APCH is fighting to decrease the amount of violent and gang-related activities, increase the number of high school graduates in the area, and provide an increased awareness of health issues as a few of their many goals they look to achieve over the next 5 years.
