The Story behind UrbView
UrbView’s beginnings were born out of pain and passion, sparked by a deeply emotional and personal experience of one of our founders. This experience ignited a fire in us to combat sexual harassment and violence, particularly in public spaces, and create a safer environment for everyone. We all shared this desire, having ourselves experienced the fear and anxiety of navigating unsafe urban areas. We knew firsthand the devastating emotional, psychological, and economic toll that such experiences could take on individuals and communities. With empathy and a fierce commitment to social justice, we founded UrbView to empower the vulnerable and voiceless, and create a future where everyone can thrive without fear, regardless of gender or color.
