Black women in graduate school need support!
⇢Graduate students earn less than minimum wage doing life-changing research which others are being paid 6-figures to do.
⇢In a study, 40% of graduate students report suffering from depression, and 40% report anxiety compared to less than 10% for the general population.
⇢It is known that women and BIPOC report depression and anxiety at a higher rate.
We are giving away cash grants to Black women interested in therapy funding support!
Our goal is to fund at least 8 graduate students with funding for therapy. This goal will be reached based on our donation pool.
Those who do not have a therapist will also be supported by a certified therapist with finding a therapist that meets their needs.
To be eligible, you must identify as a Black woman who is currently enrolled in graduate school.
