Project snapshot
I’m launching an initiative to combat activism burnout by empowering aspiring social entrepreneurs in our community. Partnering with the Sustainable Fashion Community Center and the NYC Fair Trade Coalition, we offer a nurturing environment for these leaders to thrive. Our program, serving as both an incubator and training hub, provides in-person, remote, or self-guided courses with a nominal fee to ensure engagement. Completing participants receive seed money to initiate their projects. Our curriculum covers essential skills across four sessions, from identifying issues to sustaining efforts. By leveraging strategic partnerships and inclusive outreach, we aim to cultivate a network of resilient leaders dedicated to fostering community well-being and social change.
