BUILD Honors Internationation Day of Elimination of Racial Discrimination

“I have a calling to do something and be the change.” – Saribelle, Young Entrepreneur of Feel Temple – BUILD NYC
 
Listen to our BUILDFest 2021 changemakers speak on how they would eliminate racial discrimination. As an entrepreneurial organization working at the intersection of education innovation, racial equity, and community, BUILD is uniquely positioned to not only address the challenges brought on by the pandemic but also leverage this time to drive lasting social change.
 
Now more than ever, America needs young entrepreneurial leaders. This Thursday, we will come together to BUILD Gen E – a diverse new generation of entrepreneurial leaders and changemakers!
