National Urban League: Combating Disparities Across the United States

The National Urban League is a historic civil rights organization dedicated to economic empowerment, equality, and social justice. Founded in 1910 and headquartered in New York City, the Urban League collaborates at the national and local levels with community leaders, policymakers, and corporate partners to elevate the standards of living for African Americans and other historically underserved groups.

With 90 affiliates serving 300 communities in 37 states and the District of Columbia, the Urban League spearheads the development of social programs and authoritative public policy research, and advocates for policies and services that close the equality gap. At the community level, the National Urban League and its affiliates provide direct services that improve the lives of more than two million people annually.

Toyota has supported the National Urban League for more than 30 years through sponsorships at their annual conference and the Equity Dinner held on the (second night) of the conference. This past year, Toyota was among six lead sponsors of the event, and supported a guest author at the Urban League Now breakout.

Through its partnership with the National Urban League, Toyota aims to combat disparities in communities across the United States.
