Overview
Black women are the fastest growing group of entrepreneurs in the country but among the least funded and lowest earning. Our nonprofit, the Foundation for Black Entrepreneurship (FBE), allows us to provide free programming to our participants and close the racial equity gap in entrepreneurship.
Women enroll in our training services to become stronger entrepreneurs, smarter saleswomen, and more courageous bosses who leave a wealth legacy for their families and our community. The FBE programs below are offered at no cost to the participant. Meals and daycare are provided when in-person. Register to attend or sign up for the waitlists.

As you may remember, during our Book club at the top of the first quarter, I was manifesting location #2 forThe Drop Zone. Signed the lease, and received the keys today. You CANNOT know how impactful you are in the lives of the women you encounter.

This year, MamaBird not only hit our financial goal, we crushed it. And baby when I say crush, I mean CRUSHED. Having the support of Sistahbiz helped me build a support system in my own organization that I absolutely love and trust.

As I sit here, I just wanted to extend the most heartfelt thank you. I landed Homegoods in US, TJ Maxx/Winners/Homesense in Canada, and this April, Hustle & Hope cards will be in all World Market stores across the US. I remember when my "Market Traction" slide was looking a lil bleak...but wow, what 2 years has done! I could not have done it, in part without getting accepted into the Sistahbiz retail cohort.
