Become a ConnectUP! Recurring Donor

Welcome to the new way to give at ConnectUP! Today, we are launching our first-ever recurring donor program! Before jumping into the details, we first want to THANK YOU for showing up for us in so many ways: cheerleading, partnering, investing, and donating. It takes a village to build a more inclusive and equitable entrepreneurial ecosystem, and we couldn’t do it without you!

Help us keep up our incredible momentum by becoming a monthly supporter of ConnectUP! With as little as $10/month, your donation ensures that we have the resources to continue providing culturally responsive back-end office support for emerging BIPOC, LGBTQ+ and rural founders through our Capital Readiness Accelerator, Founder Circles, Summits, and Community Circle digital platform. Here are just a few of the exciting things we have on deck for 2024.

• Expanding staff and organizational capacity
• Launching the new and improved Lunar StartUPs & Capital Readiness Accelerators
• Growing the Integrated Capital Fund to make more investments
• Power the path to making more BIPOC millionaires 

Your monthly donation will also  sustain our work supporting second-stage founders with investments through our Integrated Capital Fund, addressing the systemic injustices in our financial system that have historically excluded them from obtaining the capital needed to grow and scale their businesses. 

$5/month helps us print educational materials for entrepreneur trainings and cohorts!

$10/month reduces the cost of event registrations for founders!

$20/month helps us hire expert coaches to lead our Founder Circles!

$25/month helps us provide three entrepreneurs with an hour of mindset coaching!

$30/month helps us provide an entrepreneur with two hours of executive coaching!

Thank you for being part of our community. Together, we are powering equitable economies that work for all.
