To date, our values-aligned coalition represents Black women and their allies across the nation who have participated in the experiences rooted in sustaining leaders, empowering individuals and the collective, adaptive leadership, allyship and lifelong learning.
The Highland Legacy Fund is core to the fulfillment of our mission. THP believes that centering, sustaining, and co-powering with Black women leadership is essential to structural change for Black communities — and, this requires increased access to capital. We advance that belief through flexible, charitable funding for the Highland Community to drive bold solutions resulting in multi-generational wealth and change for Black communities and the nation.
Research, policy, and narratives create the rules of opportunity. We invest in research and narratives centering the voices, needs, aspirations, and power of Black women across the country. Together with Highland Leaders, The Highland Project is co-creating a holistic definition of wealth with key policy priorities by 2025.
