Angels Walk encourages pedestrians to discover and explore Los Angeles by connecting directly with major transit and rail lines.Organizational Accomplishments: The Angels Walk LA website continued to be maintained and populated with new information for the Central Avenue walk. The Angels Walk LA Instagram continued to facilitate connection with the local community and like-minded individuals and groups, and keep followers abreast of new activities within the organization as well as to educate about the history of Los Angeles. Ongoing research was done to determine the feasibility of an Angels Walk mobile app, and ongoing efforts were pursued to develop a pathway for repair/refurbishment of older stanchions.

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.

All figures are derived from public IRS Form 990 filings and are presented without evaluation of any organization. philanthropy.org does not rate, score, or rank organizations, including the pay comparisons above.
