Our Journey
Melanin Money began in 2017 as a merchandise brand with a simple but powerful mission: to spark conversations around building wealth as people of color. Over the years, what started as a small initiative has grown into a thriving movement. We’re honored to have you as part of this journey.

Our Impact
Our original goal was to help 100,000 people invest their first $1,000. However, we quickly realized we were dreaming too small. By 2024, our clients collectively improved their net worth by an astounding $100 million. What once felt like the final goal for our company turned into the beginning of something much greater.
That milestone inspired us to dream bigger—to make a real, lasting impact within our community.

Our Mission
Today, our mission is bold: to close the wealth gap by $100 billion by helping 100,000 people of color achieve their first (or next) million in net worth. And we want you to be part of this transformative mission.
