About Lifestyle Elevation Media Foundation, Inc. (LEMF)
Lifestyle Elevation Media Foundation, Inc. (LEMF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to bridging the digital divide and empowering underserved communities across Southern California. Since receiving IRS approval in Fall 2021, we have focused on digital equity through innovative education, media training, and AI literacy for low-income youth and senior citizens.
Our mission began with the launch of our digital media news platform in 2009, which laid the groundwork for giving back through media-focused community outreach. That vision evolved into LEMF—creating opportunities for storytelling, tech access, and intergenerational growth.
