Melanin Money: George Acheampong Is On A Mission To Help The Black Community Earn $100K Annually

George Acheampong is on a mission to create Black wealth. Over a decade ago, while Acheampong was working as the only Black advisor at his firm, he realized that the Black community needed to see someone who looked like them to feel empowered along their financial journey. He then geared up to launch a platform designed to make financial literacy accessible and affordable to Black communities. “People of color are worthy of wealth and they need to have a platform uniquely designed for their financial journey.

I wanted to open doors and help people of color feel more confident about their finances,” George Acheampong told AfroTech.
