The youth support initiative would include financial education, mentorship, and access to wealth-building resources, officials have said.
Reports indicate the partnership took off June 6 at a forum dubbed “Women of Color Creating Wealth.” The event offered young women an opportunity to connect with financial leaders and gain insight into how they can grow into economic powerhouses of their own.
Nitiya Walker, founder and executive director of Seeds of Fortune Inc., emphasized the organization’s belief in education as a “foundation of economic equity.”
“Our partnership with Marsai’s Way Foundation allows us to scale this mission and deliver financial literacy, mentorship, and career access to thousands of young women who deserve to build wealth and opportunity for themselves and their communities,” the director said in a release.
