Black History Month Mixer: The Power of Our Collective Dollars

Join us in Phoenix for a powerful in-person Black History Month mixer to celebrate Black-owned businesses, community wealth, and the practice of cooperative economics—the tradition of circulating dollars, resources, and power within our communities for collective prosperity. Black history is not just about remembering the past; it’s about building the future. Let's honor the achievements of Black entrepreneurs and professionals while fostering connections that will drive economic growth and success.

This event brings together entrepreneurs, creatives, families, professionals, and community members who are ready to move beyond survival economics and into shared ownership, collaboration, and financial liberation. Cooperative economics isn’t new—it’s ancestral wisdom. From mutual aid societies to modern cooperatives, Black communities have always found ways to build together. This event is a space to remember, relearn, and recommit to economic practices that center people over profit and community over competition.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to be part of a transformative event that highlights the strength of unity and collaboration. See you there!

Who's This Event For?

The target audience for this event includes Black entrepreneurs, professionals, and individuals who support Black financial sovereignty and community-based economic empowerment.

While the event centers on Black economic empowerment, it is inclusive and welcoming to all individuals regardless of race, age, gender, employment status, or where they are on their financial journey.
