Building Pathways to Gainful Careers and Generational Wealth through Corporate and Personal Financial Literacy

Our Why

Closing the Wealth Gap through Corporate and Personal Financial Literacy

The Problem

The Solution

We believe this generational community wealth gap continues to exist partly due to the severe underrepresentation of diverse professionals in the positions that directly facilitate the community's critical wealth building activities.

Wall Street Connection looks to build a stronger pipeline of diverse financial services & advisory professionals by providing overlooked socioeconomically disadvantaged youth exposure to the importance of and the wealth generating opportunities in the sector.

Here’s how we do it:

  • Mentorship

    We provide organized mentorship with a focus on understanding and exploring the financial services & advisory sector.

  • Build Bridges

    We connect local financial services & advisory organizations and professionals to overlooked Black communities.

  • Raise Awareness

    We provide access to partner organizations that provide financial literacy and preparatory programs for youth interested in further exploration of the financial services & advisory sector.

The Vision

We envision a world where socioeconomically disadvantaged communities have the opportunity to work with bankers, loan officers, investment professionals, and other financial services & advisory representatives who look like them and understand the nuances of their cultures and their unique needs.

The great Booker T. Washington stressed the importance of understanding and practicing collective economics within our communities.
