Provident1898

Barbie is coming to Durham! Join Provident1898 for a free screening the doc Black Barbie and explore Women Who Scale Beyond Limits. We'll get to hear from the film's Writer and Director Lagueria Davis about how the film was made and how Black Barbie came into being as Mattel recognized it was missing a significant market share - people of color! #womensimpact #beyondlimits

Back in June, Provident1898 was awarded a grant from NC IDEA’s Black Entrepreneurship Council to support Black women entrepreneurs through holistic leadership development. After some refining, we are thrilled to introduce The Heirloom Network X TheWELL, a collaboration between Provident1898’s Heirloom Network and Margaret A. Brunson, PhD, MPA TheWELL. The program designed to provide technical assistance, pre- and post-assessments, and holistic group coaching, which will officially launch in early 2025. While the full program won’t be available until then, we’ve lined up several events to build anticipation and set the stage for what’s to come. At this event, we will honor the legacy of the women who have shaped Durham’s Black Wall Street and engage in powerful discussions about leadership, wellness, and wealth.
