So thankful for @rodneybwilliams, @hadeosun & @rubenharris for kicking off our @collab_capital Founders’ Retreat today! These are three of the smartest, most thoughtful founders building today. Still processing all the gems they shared. 🤯

Husband and wife duo Tye @drtyecaldwell and Courtney Caldwell @ShearShareCEO run their own hair care business but noticed a problem: empty chairs.
They came up with the @shearshare app that has been a game changer 💇

Legacy admission IS THE ULTIMATE RACIAL CONSIDERATION when it comes to admissions in THIS COUNTRY.
I wonder if the Supreme Court is putting an end to that.
BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court rules colleges and universities must stop considering race in admissions, putting an end to affirmative action in higher education. apne.ws/IPmvUPv

Today @TheGoodrCo joined @amazon and @RedCross to kick off hurricane season with a disaster relief unveiling. That’s right - Goodr will be bringing emergency relief to families should it be needed this year. This has been a dream of mine and here we are - stay tuned!
Great to hear about the awesome partnership between @Career_Karma and Tech Equity Collective, a @Google Initiative, to create the Black Genius Academy! blackgeniusacademy.careerkar…

Love the shoutout to @jdawkinsatl for giving @jasminecrowe early advice to access her dev’s GitHub repository and monitor activity. That allowed her to see the dev wasn’t producing anything. 😡 So important for non-technical founders to find technical advisors early! #RenderATL
.@TheGoodrCo will be rescuing all excess food from @RenderATL. Great collaboration! #RenderATL @jasminecrowe
Jasmine & her team are constantly raising the bar for what it means to do well & do good.
It should be a no-brainer for every city/corp to sign up w/ Goodr.
Solving hunger & waste is good for business & for communities.
Decision makers, get in touch! Goodr.co
Took a little drive down to Rome, GA today where we are serving veterans with United Military Care with @TheGoodrCo mobile grocery store. I feel so blessed to live a purpose driven life. It’s the best feeling ever to do this work. #DoGoodr

Memphis, TN I am so thrilled to bring @TheGoodrCo to you. In partnership with Shelby County schools we are going to reduce food insecurity for students in this city. May no child ever go hungry again - this is just the beginning of all that we will do!
Fueling success through nutrition! Our partnership with Memphis-Shelby County Schools opened the in-school Goodr Grocery Store at Treadwell Intl. Community School, providing students & families access to nutritious food. Together, we pave the way! 🙌💚🛒 #FoodForSuccess #Goodr

Guns and mental health—two things Georgia Republican leaders avoided tackling this legislative session so they could focus on targeting transgender youth, private school vouchers, and…leaf blowers. #gapol

I am excited to be back in Sunny DC today, attending @OurMayors Annual conference. Eager to share the sustainable impact @TheGoodrCo is leading around Hunger and Food Waste. Tell your city’s Mayor to come see me 😊.
Thanks so much to @TerriBWilliams @amazon_policy for having me!

Today we opened another @TheGoodrCo Grocery Store in Minnetonka, Minnesota in partnership with @paigebueckers1 and @Chegg. The store lives inside of Paige’s old middle school and It’s amazing. I am so grateful to bring Goodr to another state & create more impact to fight hunger!
