Elevate You is a new local nonprofit, designed to bolster black, indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) entrepreneurs in their journeys to build successful businesses and establish generational wealth.
Created in 2022, Elevate You is the brainchild of entrepreneurs, Kenny and Chris Crump. As successful business owners in Columbus, OH for more than 20 years, they’ve encountered the difficulties associated with building and sustaining a business. They’ve also seen firsthand the compounded adversity that comes with being an entrepreneur of color.
Whether it’s lack of funding, access, or mentorship, BIPOC entrepreneurs face incredible challenges and, without intentional support, they will likely see their businesses fail within the first 18 months. This awareness compelled Kenny and Chris to create Elevate You, a foundation to fund business development training for BIPOC entrepreneurs. Scholarships provided through Elevate You grant budding entrepreneurs with access to resources, guidance, and support to start, scale, and sustain strong businesses.
Elevate You will host its inaugural fundraising gala at Revery Rooftop on January 7, 2023 and is inviting the community to join in the mission to help create generational wealth for BIPOC entrepreneurs by providing access to essential business resources. Hosted by celebrity entrepreneur B. Simone, this gala will feature DJ KrateDigga, virtual reality activations, and an augmented reality art silent auction.
Capacity is limited. Gain access to this experience by donating to the cause:minimum donation of $50 grants general admission and $100+ donation grants VIP admission. VIP attendees have access to a private section, a custom keepsake, entered for a chance to win Meta Quest 2, and more.
