BKLVLUP is a community-powered enviro-tech and development nonprofit rooted in East Flatbush, Flatbush, and Flatlands.

We reimagine what power looks like when it’s designed by us, for us.

Founded from a grassroots vision, BKLVLUP blends environmental justice, digital equity, civic engagement, art, and collective joy to challenge the systems harming Black and Brown Brooklynites — and to build futures that belong to us.

Our programs center:
EcoPower Youth Internship: Climate tech & science education 
The Flats Community Land Trust: Community land ownership
Cultivate: Environmental justice & design-thinking
The Collective: BIPOC small business empowerment

From rain-activated street art to youth-led soil testing, every initiative is a blueprint for what it means to level up Brooklyn — one block, one business, one voice at a time.

The future is local. The power is collective. The moment is now.
