UNITY CORPS
Unity Corps, Inc. is a nonprofit organization operating exclusively for
charitable purposes within the meaning of section 501(c)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code. As stated in the founding Articles of Incorporation, the specific
purpose of this nonprofit mission is:
|
"to seek out those individuals and groups who support
the aims of racial, religious, and sexual non-discrimination, and to
provide for the peaceful promotion of human unity via the arts,
assemblage, literature and other means of goodwill." |
Initially formed in 1992 as an unincorporated association of
artists and concerned citizens to be an immediate reaction against the extreme
U.S. domestic violence and ethnic group prejudices unleashed during the Los Angeles
riots of that period; the organization formally incorporated in late 1998 to its
present day status of nonprofit public benefit corporation.
Subsequently, the efforts of this organization have gradually
expanded to include research on methods for the promotion of peace and unity
throughout all of society and rehabilitative services delivered primarily
through usage of the arts. Involvements with both traditional
mainstream media and other evolving forms of mass communication are also an emphasis
of major consideration for this cause.
Our primary purpose is "to promote feelings of oneness amongst all humanity."
