The Story

Black & Brown Founders is on a mission to close the vast and growing wealth gap between Black and Latinx households and their counterparts in the United States. We help Black and Latinx entrepreneurs launch and build tech businesses with modest resources. This wouldn’t be possible without a community of Game Changers--individuals like you, corporations, and philanthropic foundations--supporting our work.

As the pandemic exposed the depths of inequity, inequality, and injustice among humanity, countless corporations and organizations scrambled to shift from being a part of the problem to a factor in the solution. Apologies were offered. Promises were made. Money was given. However, a worldwide attempt to resume some semblance of normalcy has caused skepticism from many within the Black and Latinx community. 

How long will the commitments last? Was it all performative or real progress?

Black & Brown Founders wants to ensure that those commitments are real and the change is systemic. 

We’ve seen, firsthand, what can happen when individuals and those in power choose to do good. One decision can move the needle one degree in the right direction. Our giving circle makes that decision monthly or annually; they are the difference because they are Game Changers and you can be too.

Here are FOUR Ways You Can Help us make Game Changing Good a way of life.
