Our Mission
NEGB’s mission is to address visual blight through graffiti and trash removal and landscaping services that create jobs for underserved individuals and supply wraparound employment training and opportunities as well as other social services that address the needs of low income and working class residents in Los Angeles County.
The strength of our nonprofit organization is rooted in the unwavering support of stakeholders and the business community. Through collaboration, we accomplish far greater objectives than we could individually. It is our goal to continue this much-needed work to create meaningful and lasting change.

Our History
Northeast Graffiti Busters (NEGB) was established in 2001 with a mission to tackle visual blight in the Northeast San Fernando Valley. With 23 years of experience in graffiti removal, NEGB swiftly responds to community concerns, making neighborhoods safer by significantly reducing graffiti. Our rapid response time of 24-48 hours has led to a notable decrease in gang-related crime rates, as graffiti often serves as a form of communication among gangs. Initially serving only Council District 7, NEGB's exceptional service standards, community involvement, and expertise have enabled us to expand into Council Districts 1, 6, 14, and parts of 2.
