Hi Supporters!
Big, big news at Ìpàdé - I am so excited to share with you that I'm teaming up with American Express® for their 100 for 100 program - a program built to support Black women-owned businesses who showcased innovation through crisis. As a program participant, we will receive funding and business education over the next 6 months.
First, THANK YOU for supporting our crowdfunding campaign! You helped us get here and I’m forever grateful! Now, we’re 94% funded and only $3K away from our goal! Spread the word to help us fully fund this campaign!
Being part of this program will allow us to:
Grow the Community
We'll have support to share our mission, values, and the work we're doing for Black, Indigenous, and womxn of color with more changemakers so they can find their tribe and a community of support.
Build the Business
We will invest in creating the infrastructure we need to take Ìpàdé to the next level and open our first physical location in Washington, D.C.
Pay Black and Brown Womxn for Their Work
We will continue to provide high-quality content and programming for our members and, in doing so, put that money back into the hands of people of color who are leading conversations, implementing workshops, and sharing their skills and expertise with fellow BIWOC changemakers.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
Elizabeth
