This month, we are excited to once again partner with Zora’s House – the first and only community space and leadership incubator in the region created by and for women+ of color – works to dismantle barriers of systemic racism and sexism, and to ensure the full participation of women+ of color in the civic, economic, and cultural life of Central Ohio.

Building on this foundation, Zora’s House is looking to meet the ever-increasing needs of our community and address the racial and gender inequities that hold women+ of color back from their full potential. With this in mind, Zora’s House is making the following significant investments in their organizational capacity:

 

    • The build out of a 10,000 square foot, $5.3 million community hub that will serve as a center for leadership, innovation, and an economic empowerment engine for Black, Latina, AAPI, Indigenous, and other women+ and gender expansive people of color across Franklin County.
    • $1 million in critical capacity building funds to expand staffing, increase the reach of our high-impact programs and services, and ensure future financial sustainability for Zora’s House.
