Advance Memphis was founded in 1999 to bring about economic revitalization in Memphis, Tennessee. Specifically, we focus on the South Memphis neighbors who live in the 38126 and 38106 zip codes. We began in 38126 and still make it our first priority. We believe that adults can be empowered to change their lives and their community. Advance Memphis provides biblically based programs that bring HOPE, KNOWLEDGE, RESOURCES, and SKILLS to the neighborhood. The residents of the neighborhood then have the tools they need to affect change.
