Project details

What we need
  • A list of potential foundations to target for grant applications
Additional details

The Financial Services and Accounting fields are severely lacking diversity and inclusion from minorities especially from African American and Latino backgrounds. As our society becomes a majority minority country these industries fail to reflect this new dynamic. We are choosing to make a difference in our community.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a presentation deck, a web site, collateral,& LinkedIn page, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have several versions of the TSS story, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,808 , allowing us to offer a broader product offering.

This project will help us to find appropriate funding sources (Granting agencies) that match up with our mission, values, and vision.
