We Elevate You Foundation

We Elevate You Foundation We bolster BIPOC entrepreneurs in their journey to build successful businesses & generational wealth. But where there's challenge, there's opportunity. Join us.

Introducing the We Elevate You Foundation, a beacon of hope and empowerment for BIPOC entrepreneurs. Established in 2022 in the vibrant heart of Columbus, OH, our mission is to amplify the voices, visions, and ventures of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color in the business realm. Founded by the dynamic duo, Kenny and Chris Crump, who have weathered the storms of entrepreneurship for over two de

cades, this foundation is more than just a non-profit; it's a testament to their journey. They've walked the tightrope of business challenges, acutely feeling the magnified adversities faced by entrepreneurs of color. From confronting funding gaps to navigating the labyrinth of access and mentorship, they've seen the staggering odds stacked against BIPOC business owners, where many ventures falter within the first year and a half. With We Elevate You, Kenny and Chris are turning the tide. They're investing in the future, offering scholarships that unlock doors to business development training, resources, and mentorship. Their vision? A world where BIPOC entrepreneurs don't just survive but thrive, building legacies and generational wealth. Be part of a movement that redefines the entrepreneurial landscape and champions diversity and success in equal measure. Together, we can ensure every BIPOC entrepreneur rises above and beyond.
