The racial wealth gap between Black and white households continues to widen in the U.S. and now stands at $44,890 and $285,010, respectively. The wealth disparity between Black and white Americans continues to grow. As a nonprofit, we’re working to change that through research-first, marketing-based solutions.
Our Mission
The Fund for Social Equity is a working group that is developing and market testing initiatives to narrow the racial wealth gap, including a certification program to certify Black American owned businesses to differentiate their offerings from those of competitors and market the seal to the broader American consumer population.
Our Goals
We want to build generational wealth
for minority communities.
We want to create a brighter
future for our children to grow.
We want our communities to
flourish with opportunity.
