Partners, funders, and
what we are building together
Brave Sis Project Solidarity Lab is in a build-and-raise phase: moving from a single-founder methodology into a network of certified facilitators and partner organizations.
What we are building
Brave Sis Project is in a build-and-raise phase: moving from a single-founder methodology into a network of certified facilitators and partner organizations.
In 2026, we are seeding a $250,000 raise to launch the Solidarity Lab Academy’s Initial Design Cohort, invest in curriculum and platform development, and bring on fractional operational support. We have already identified five of our seven initial cohort participants, eager to engage.
Planned for Q2 2027, the Academy’s inaugural cohort brings together eight experienced practitioners (including our founder) from across the equity and movement-building landscape to co-create, stress-test, and refine the curriculum in real time.
What the raise underwrites
Curriculum design & testing
Full design and testing of the 11-lesson SAIN et SAUF Solidarity and Unity Framework for facilitators.
Platform & brand consolidation
Digital ladder of offerings and community platforms built for the long haul.
Inaugural cohort stipends
Fair compensation for eight practitioners who co-create and stress-test the curriculum. Applications open when the fundraising goal is reached.
Who we are looking for
We are welcoming values-aligned funders, advisors, and early partner organizations who see the need for a post-DEI, solidarity-centered approach and are ready to help seed what comes next.
- Funders: Foundations, individual philanthropists, and impact investors aligned with equity, leadership development, and BIPOC* women’s advancement.
- Ecosystem partners: Organizations, networks, and institutions building solidarity infrastructure in a post-DEI landscape.
*About “BIPOC”: we know the acronym is evolving and can feel reductive and misaligned for many. We use it here as a familiar shorthand.
Our approach: SAIN et SAUF
Our proprietary methodology, SAIN et SAUF, French for safe and sound, was built across more than six years of DEI facilitation, and a lifetime of lived experience, with BIPOC Foremothers as its anchor. It is a partnership model, not a compliance program, and it is what every offering in the Solidarity Lab is built on.
