Black philantrophy isn't new. Today, "African American households give 25% more of their wages annually than white households." We're not new to this, the NAAIA Foundation is simply an extension of who we are and always have been. #blackphilantrophy #blacknonprofits #diversity #givingtuesday https://lnkd.in/gX_Q8fFt

Some see "talent" but we see business owners. The NAAIA Foundation makes strategic investments in entrepreneurship because we deserve to live out our ambitions. In doing so, we continue to make strides towards closing the wealth gap. Visit naaiafoundation.org to learn more! #entrepreneurship #wealthgap #blackownedbusinesses

What happens when African Americans access opportunity and ownership in the insurance industry? Communities and legacies shift. Alonzo Herndon is one of the great examples in history and a great inspiration to the work that we do to create opportunity today. https://lnkd.in/gTHCw3pD

The decline of African American insurance compaines has had substantial consequences for Black communities. That is why business ownership is a clear focus for NAAIA Foundation https://lnkd.in/gcmKJw8z
