Why do these issues exist?

WHY DO THESE ISSUES EXIST ?

ECONOMIC INEQUALITY

According to a report released by the Corporation for Economic Development and the Institute for Policy Studies, it will take 228 years for the average Black family to accumulate the same amount of wealth as the average White family, today.

This wealth disparity is the leading cause of issues in the Black community...

We are dedicated to over-turning those statistics and closing that wealth gap through small business development.

Help Us!

HELP US!

Time is running out!

Each year the wealth gap, between Black and White households, widens further and further. The only way to reverse its effects is through economic revitalization.  Help us grant seed capital to our first round of Black-Start up businesses by donating today...

WHO IS THE FOUNDER?

Me.jpg

Hello...

My name is Michellett Whitney. I studied at California State University of San Bernardino holding a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Liberal Studies with a Concentration in Humanities and a Minor in Biology.

 

I am a ten year veteran in the non-profit sector working with underserved communities at various levels of my career such as case management and after-school programming.

 

My experience with subsidized programs has acted as the catalyst in bringing Colour Conscious into fruition.  I believe that such programs, in addition to historical implications, have been an added impediment to the Black community's ability to acquire wealth.

 

As a member of this marginalized demographic. I look forward to partnering with those in alignment with my effort and have a deep desire to accelerate change. I hope that, together, we can help provide the necessary resources to help overcome this tragic disparity!
