Venture Noire is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to closing the quality-of-life gap for economically disadvantaged communities by empowering individuals and communities with the tools, resources, and networks needed to unlock human potential, disrupt the cycle of generational poverty, and foster a thriving, equitable economic ecosystem.
In the last 50 years, the share of American adults in middle-class households has fallen significantly,
leading to economic and social issues across every city – we must act now.
Venture Noire is reimagining the American middle class. We believe the most consequential decisions, threats, and opportunities humanity has ever faced will take place during the next 50 years. Venture Noire’s purpose is to find solutions to these challenges and implement them through projects to improve quality of life for the underserved communities and the country.
