MAE Institute

Since the beginning of time, moms have been dealing with the pressure of balancing their families and careers. NAME believes that this should not be the case. The vast majority of growing businesses in the United States are black women-owned. Unfortunately, this same demographic experiences setbacks in financial, human, and social capital needed to break the $40 million ceiling to increase impact hiring. Women are the backbone of families, yet they are often overlooked for growth opportunities and capital in Business.

Our Solution

The Mom As Entrepreneurs Institute provides evidence-based training that focuses on business models, operations, marketing, finances (both personal and business), networking, fundraising, public relations, motherhood, etc.

Our strategic partnerships allow us to bring in a plethora of mentors and resources to ensure longevity and growth for our members and their businesses.
