Jennifer’s Story

Getting clear about my "money story" has helped me move out of shame or a desire to keep my wealth hidden and into a sense of purpose and action. Over the last two years, I’ve been working to shift wealth and power to close the racial wealth gap. My husband and I started the #HalfMyDAF challenge to put more charitable dollars to work at nonprofits. I’ve also been partnering with BIPOC lead organizations and investing in Black and brown women first-time fund managers. It’s healing and empowering to be moving money in partnership and creating the more equitable, inclusive society we will all benefit from living within.
