"The Black Wall St. Project is a student-led financial literacy series fueled by the Vision Fellowship Program initiated by the Office of Black Student Development (OBSD). The series is more than just financial literacy workshops; it represents a commitment to holistic community wellness. The Vision Fellowship Program, designed to give students the opportunity to bring their chosen projects to life, operates on the principle that these projects need not align with their majors but can instead be driven by personal passions and interests.
The Black Wall St. Project empowers the Black UCSB Community with essential tools for financial literacy, wealth accumulation, and economic control. They aim to catalyze the development of robust, financially literate communities both on and off campus. Rooted in a solid finance background and knowledge in wealth accumulation, they believe in granting power and freedom — the power to build economically strong households and communities that we own and control."
