How to build a community owned education platform
According to the Association of Black Foundation Executives, only 1.8% of philanthropic dollars go to Black-led organizations. Our core belief is that the integration of Black communities into the operation and business of education is the missing catalyst for improving student outcomes.
Leveraging technology with our expansive network, we're developing platforms for Black communities to manage our own education and launch projects that support student learning while generating wealth.

A New Era of Education
Digital tools to govern our education ecosystem
The future of education includes a combination of blended and autodidactic learning models. We have developed the tech tools that give grassroots, educators and parents ownership in a new education ecosystem. Using a decentralized approach, we understand that scalability is only achieved when Black communities are fully invested and rewarded for the improvement of students outcomes.

Why Partner With Us?
A few reasons why others are working with us
Educating the “whole child” means prioritizing the full scope of a student's developmental needs both in and out of schools. We help parents and families organize available resources and develop personalized ecosystems to support learning in financial literacy, mental health, history, STEM, workforce development, and more! .
Only 1.8% of philanthropic dollars go to Black-led organizations. We work with local Black nonprofits of all sizes to help them generate revenue for their services and build their capacity.
We help K-12 educators improve attendance and student outcomes by connecting grassroots members with schools and providing gamified programming that fosters academic improvement.
We partner with Foundations to help them make investments in community education ecosystems led by Black grassroots. Our partners agree that student academic outcomes improve when those most impacted have the resources to implement their own solutions.
