A space you can bring your whole self into
We understand your nonprofit or business is more than work, but your life calling. When you can’t bring your whole self to the work, challenges feel insurmountable. All of our offerings are designed to help you turn chaos into calm and are culturally and spiritually grounded and support you where you are at this moment.
ABOUT US
Everyone deserves access to guidance and support no matter what stage of development their life work is in.
Your business doesn’t need to reach $100k in revenue or even $25k in revenue to need coaching or consulting.
Community & sharing resources is an essential characteristic of BIPOC folx across the globe. We believe these characteristics should also be pervasive in business practices for BIPOC folx, not just how we exist communally and in our families.
For us, accessibility is connecting our Partners to each other for collaborations, seeking other content experts our Partners need who share the same values as our Partners, it’s creating databases with impactful information like our grants & fellowships database (that houses 150+ grants for our Partners to apply for!) and more
Activistpreneurs need accessible resources to do their best work. Piecemealing support to build your life work is taxing and takes a lot of time.
The Afrocentric Communiversity does that labor for you.
Oftentimes, we get sucked into a protocol and formula for doing work that does not affirm who we are. We deviate from placing community as the focus. The Afrocentric Communiversity values the radical & groundbreaking ideas that keep cultures thriving.
Our core values & guiding princples
You can’t reach your goals without doing the work my friend. Your Life Work is a journey. Journeys require stamina. Stamina requires practice. Practice requires discipline
Discipline
Inderdependency
We rely on each other & all of creation for success. We need each other to survive.
Everything we do is guided by the spirit and rests on the shoulders of our Ancestors. Through a continuous assessment of divinity, being resourceful, and being accessible, we support the community where they are at this moment.

Meet the team
My genius is strategy rooted in Afrocentricity.
I have supported many folx in manifesting visions that center the empowerment of practicing & observing culture in the Black community.
I support Partners by bringing my 7 plus years experience in Community Development, Community Engagement, Grants Management and African-American Studies to the design and implementation of nonprofit and business ventures.

Hannah: Project Support Catalyst
As a Project Support Catalyst, I prioritize project management that meets our partners where they are, coordinating processes that are supportive, accessible, and manageable.
I don’t focus on the “traditional” elements of project management but instead on systems rooted in anti-racist, restorative, and nonhierarchical values. My care for the community grounds my every action and is supported by my 15 years of organizing experience.
Emily: Brand Strategist & Designer
Emily is a latinx, queer, non-binary person, who believes it's important that the work that they do is in alignment with who they are, their values, and is actively working towards doing things differently and rebelling the "norm" of doing the work.
That's why they support The Afrocentric Communiversity.
