Programs
Awareness and Technology
Funding tools that build psychological agency through behavioral awareness, pattern recognition, and attention sovereignty. Transcend is the first program in this pillar.
See Transcend →Educational Access
Putting modern technology and AI tools into under-resourced schools. The first pilot is planned for the rural Alabama elementary school where this work started. Future programming includes venture scholarships for students from communities that historically lack access to early creative or entrepreneurial capital.
Submit a request →Arts, Culture, and Community
Live arts programming centering BIPOC creative voices and underrepresented artists. Retrovision is the flagship event series, structured around analog-only art submissions and accessible community curation.
