ZupaNova’s vision is to create a wave of positive impact worldwide, serving as role models, mentors, and creators of music that unites various cultures, fashion trends, and lifestyles while echoing the resounding message of “ZupaLove” globally.
In partnership with Nancy Gale, the Founder of AMBITION, ZupaNova is on a mission to spark profound and meaningful conversations that unite courageous and influential voices, inspiring change. As long-standing ambassadors of AMBITION.org, a nonprofit entrepreneurial program for underprivileged youth that fosters innovation, solution-driven thinking, confidence, and a positive work ethic through business, music, fashion, and collaborations with special guests, ZupaNova actively contributes to raising awareness and funding for disadvantaged youth. Their virtual benefit concert garnered attention from celebrity figures like Paris Hilton and power couple Tom & Lisa Bilye, who joined forces with local Los Angeles students to create a fun wave of selfie-style promo videos to support the program.
ZupaNova shares the role of mentor for the AMBITION Foundation with other well-known personalities, including Richard Branson, Paris Hilton & Carter Reum, Brad Pitt, Jessica Alba, Ashton Kutcher, Tom & Lisa Bilyeu, the daytime talk show “The Real,” and Lou Williams of the LA Clippers. Moreover, ZupaNova has created the AMBITION theme song, consisting of two tracks: “Every day is a Holiday” and the new song “You Don’t Know About Me,” part of a movement called “THE DIALOGUE” aimed at engaging in conversations with young individuals about race and racism.
Not confined to the realm of music, ZupaNova has also appeared on the catwalk, performing at the “Fashion 4 A Cause” runway fashion show in Los Angeles, California. This unique event brings together charities, fundraising efforts, and nonprofit organizations through the medium of fashion, further exemplifying ZupaNova’s commitment to positively impacting multiple domains.
