    Description

    Let’s Get It Together (L.G.I.T.) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit on a mission to empower individuals and entrepreneurs through financial education, real estate mentorship, and community-driven programs. Rooted in four core pillars-Entrepreneurship, Community Development, Workforce Development, and Financial Literacywe serve underserved communities, youth, and aspiring business owners, with a focus on financial equity and economic mobility.

    Our programs include hands-on financial literacy workshops, real estate investment seminars, entrepreneurship boot camps, and youth mentorship initiatives. We also provide curriculum development, a growing online resource hub, and a financial literacy podcast to reach broader audiences.

    We believe that access to knowledge, capital, and opportunity can transform lives. Through events like networking mixers, youth entrepreneur fairs, and financial wellness expos, we aim to build a financially savvy, empowered community where dreams thrive.

    L.G.I.T. is more than an organization-it’s a movement to close the wealth gap and inspire future leaders to build, invest, and succeed.

    A. Progeny Global, the for-profit "big brother" to L.G.I.T., is a full-service real estate brokerage, development, property management, title, and global sourcing firm.

    This multifaceted business directly supports L.G.I.T.’s mission by providing funding, mentorship, real estate expertise, and hands-on training opportunities. Through this unique synergy, L.G.I.T. participants gain access to real-world industry networks, project-based learning, and entrepreneurial pathways-creating a powerful ecosystem where both social impact and economic empowerment thrive.
