  • About Us

    Mission:

    Our mission is to transform school-based learning so that Black girls and girls of color in underserved communities have the skills, habits and resources to build and sustain wealth.

    Organization:

    We are a radically feminist nonprofit organization that focuses on giving girls of color the confidence, skills, and resources to build and sustain wealth. Through collaborative school partnerships, an engaging, integrative educational model, and a focus on intersectional feminism, we empower underserved communities to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty.

    Our model is culturally responsive, adapting to the unique needs of students of color and customizing programs to meet to the operational realities of school districts. We focus on sustainable, scalable solutions by training teachers and providing curriculum that integrates across every school subject, bringing wealth literacy as a core competency to the fore.
