Amidst stark statistics highlighting transgender unemployment and poverty, our Future Entrepreneurs Empowerment Program (FEEP) stands as a beacon of hope. Partnering with esteemed organizations like Destination Tomorrow and Brooklyn Community Pride Center, we aim to equip transgender individuals with entrepreneurial skills, fostering economic independence. Their unwavering support fuels our enrollment surge, driven by passionate community organizers advocating for change. Through strategic alliances, we’re redefining fundraising tactics, inviting active participation in our transformative journey. Our mission extends beyond education, offering tangible support like stipends and nourishing meals. With partnerships like Black Connect and The Stylista Group, we provide comprehensive entrepreneurial guidance, empowering transgender individuals to thrive.
