At Upendo Ventures, we’re proud to call San Carlos our home base. While our Clients and team members span the globe, our roots run deep in the Peninsula. Our founder, Will Strohl, has spent years not only building digital solutions for businesses—but also helping build a stronger, more connected local community.
Proudly Supporting
Whether we’re volunteering, planning, or celebrating alongside our neighbors, we believe that showing up matters.
You’re not outsourcing to strangers—you’re teaming up with a neighbor who’s invested in your success.
When Will saw an opportunity to improve how people gather downtown, he led a successful grassroots campaign to close a portion of Laurel Street to vehicle traffic. This transformation helped create a safer, more vibrant space for families, pedestrians, and small businesses to thrive.
As a city, we're even now nearing the end of planning the revitalization via a reconstructed downtown as a result!
