What inspired the name... Defeat the Streets?
Defeat the Streets feels powerful, evokes strong emotions and aligns with our philanthropic perspective and passion for our mission.
The name Defeat the Streets is a metaphor, which symbolizes important concepts that our organization aims to put into action such as determination to overcome adversity; persistence in finding solutions to obstacles; a passion to make a positive change; and a desire to make an impactful difference, of any scale, even if for just one person at a time.

Call to Action
Defeat the Streets wants to dispel the myth that Philanthropy, from the Greek, "for the love of humanity" is only for the rich, old and famous. We are expanding our Ambassador Program created to mentor young future leaders.
​
We are developing a philanthropic focused, educational program curriculum for high school age students. We want to compel young people to broaden their perspective and awareness of the world. We want to plant the seeds of activism and inspire them to be agents of positive change in their communities and beyond.
If you are interested in supporting this program, please contact Deborah Tomasi at dtomasi251@gmail.com
