About us
GiveSankofa provides a healing space and incubator for Black and Brown people to be free and actualize their full potential. We employ a collective impact strategy focused on individual and community development through programs and services that expand healing, joy, love, innovation, and freedom. We focus on men, women, youth, community development, capacity-building for leaders, and providing capital for Black and Brown entrepreneurship. Our three launch programs include: BEE FREE Community Healing Grant: Our grants are a part of our strategy to democratize healing and funding to our most underserved and underinvested communities and organizations. We’re going to inner cities to provide direct unrestrictive microgrants to organizations leading efforts in our most under-resourced communities in Chicago and beyond. BEE FREE Youth Leadership Program: We believe young people possess the wisdom to birth creative solutions that transform their present realities. Our BEE FREE Youth Leadership Program empowers students to become conscious leaders for equity within their local communities by equipping them with tools to identify problems, research best practices, engage stakeholders, develop community-centered solutions, and build support to launch their initiatives. The program ends with a pitch competition and the winning team receives funding to launch their program in their community. Our pilot cohort launches in Summer 2023. BEE FREE Woman & Man Coaching: We equip women and men with healing strategies to overturn fixed mindsets, trust their spirit, exercise leadership, successfully navigate race and gender issues, and build their legacies. Many women and men come to us when they are at a transition point and want to rise to that higher version of self. Our equity-based payment model launches in February 2023. Individuals and teams looking for coaching, let us serve you. Visit our website for more information!
