We're thrilled when partnerships collide! JA North partner, @Vikings recently recognized Arielle Grant as a Hometown Hero. We were honored to have Arielle share her experiences as the founder of Render Free at our Black Entrepreneur Speaker Series.
Arielle Grant is the founder and CEO of Render Free, a collaborative work and wellness space for self-identified Black + Brown women. On Saturday night, we recognized her as one of our Hometown Heroes.

Last week, JA North hosted our STE(A)M Camp - a jam-packed learning experience with hands-on experiments to figure out the facts behind some wacky questions. One of our rising-5th grade Campers told us, “I’ve learned more about STEM this week than I did all year in school!”

As we prepare to recognize Juneteenth this Sunday, we acknowledge the many ways Black voices have been and are excluded within business and entrepreneurship. We're so grateful for the stories and experiences that all our panelists have generously shared with guests and students!
