I want to congratulate the fantastic first Enterprising Ventures of Color cohort from Flint, MI, on their outstanding accomplishments over the last 18 months. Together, this group increased their annual budgets by 20% and innovated individual donor campaigns while securing catalytic multi-year state-level funding. Notably, one member was elected to the city council, showcasing their capacity to respond to political issues and influence decision-makers. Moreover, this cohort excelled in collaborating to launch new partnerships to improve youth and family outcomes while bringing in new philanthropic investments. Each member has shown confidence in their leadership abilities and a commitment to developing other leaders. The dedication and hard work of this group are truly commendable. A job well done to the entire cohort! Claudnyse Holloman, Leon Abdullah El-Alamin, Shon Hart, Leah Hart, Tenesa Thompson, Jessica Kitchner Vincent Slocum, Angela Hood, MBA Lisa Humphrey, Michari Garner, Necole Hayes, Jalen Nunn, and Marsha Thrower. I am grateful to Isaiah Oliver for his vision to improve racial equity through the Enterprising Ventures of Color impact model.
