We help underrepresented youth achieve more.

FINANCE EDUCATION - TRAINING - MENTORSHIP - CAREERS

The next cohort of our 4-month Wall Street Direct program starts in January, 2025.

The Problem

The data is clear. A diversity of people, ideas, and backgrounds leads to improved decision-making, outcomes, and profitability. Yet the lack of diversity on Wall Street remains the status quo.

By teaching the technical “hard” skills of finance and the “soft” skills of corporate culture, we empower under-represented young adults to achieve beyond their present horizons.

Our Impact
