Our Growing Impact
Join thousands supporting Black-owned businesses and building economic empowerment
Goal
Days
Recirculating The Black Dollar
With over $1.8 trillion in annual spending power, the impact of how we spend our money is enormous. However, the Black dollar circulates in our community for only 6 hours compared to:
- 28 days in the Asian community
- 19 days in the Jewish community
- 17 days in the White community
"The 40 million melanated Americans spend $1.1 trillion a year. If we spent ⅓ of this with each other, we'd all be millionaires in 2 years."
Every time you choose a Black-owned business, you help extend that 6 hours and build community wealth.
