Our Mission
In One Sentence: To Build Black Wealth!
There are so many social issues to address. The black wealth crisis is the most unaddressed social issue in America, even among those fighting racism. We leverage skilling, entrepreneurship and ownership to increase wealth generating activities. A lack of wealth is the root cause of so many racial issues. We are excited to show the world how increasing black wealth improves black life!

Our First Program! July 2020
Black Girls Do Tech! Web Design Program
