Hackman Capital’s TV City Pledges $2M to Support Beverly/Fairfax District, Promote Entertainment Industry Diversity
Television City, the iconic media campus owned and operated by an affiliate of Hackman Capital Partners, pledged $2 million to help address local community needs as well as seed an educational endowment to improve diversity within the entertainment industry. The effort will launch with a $1 million contribution to support local community organizations, businesses, and individuals that are working to revitalize the Beverly/Fairfax District.
Hackman Capital Partners’ Michael Hackman says, “Television City has called this community home for nearly 70 years, and it pains us to see our neighbors, community organizations, and small businesses – many of which are trying to reopen their doors in the first time in over three months – suffer through these challenging times.”
Television City is also seeding $1 million to establish an educational endowment to increase diversity and provide career opportunities in the entertainment industry. It will work with local schools, production studios, and content creators to offer Black students and other underrepresented communities the resources to obtain mentorship, internships, scholarships, and the necessary education and onsite training to secure jobs in Los Angeles’ largest industry.
