Our Mission

Living On Purpose is the Bay Area Hub of Changing Faces Inc., a respected 501(c)(3) with nearly 30 years of service. Together, we empower individuals and marginalized communities to become authentic, purpose-driven leaders who build stable lives and create lasting community impact.

Our mission is to increase upward mobility and close the generational wealth gap through holistic support that includes housing stability, mentorship, financial competency, entrepreneurship, and access to education and health resources.

We do this through three interconnected programs that reinforce one another:

Youth of Purpose

Transitional living and leadership development for young people ages 14 to 24, with wraparound support that strengthens life skills, well-being, education and career pathways, and long-term stability.

Athletes of purpose

Career transition and wealth-building support for current and former athletes, helping them turn discipline and influence into sustainable careers and meaningful community investment.

Women of Purpose

Powerful and practical workshops that support inside-out growth, healthy relationships, financial competency, entrepreneurship, and leadership.

If you have breath, you have purpose. We help that purpose become a pathway—so individuals thrive, and communities rise with them.
