More about us….
Our primary beneficiaries are Black mothers. They, many like their mothers before them, work very hard to try and provide a good life for their children, but cannot seem to get ahead.
Their overwhelming consistent hopes are to:
· Provide a better future for their children and establish some generational wealth
· Know better to do better. They want to break generational bad habits.
· Navigate financial systems better (by learning both the known and hidden languages)
· Feel comfortable and confident in talking about money
Program outcomes:
· Strengthen the Black community's relationship with money.
· Enhance the Black mother's ability to navigate financial systems.
· Prevent Black mothers and their families from being trapped in a negative generational cycle.
· Strengthen the financial health and literacy of the Black mother.
· Increase the confidence and awareness of the Black mother's ability to seek financial support.
· Help Black mothers facing systemic racial barriers get better access to financial supports and systems
