We hope to nurture our business network with knowledge and support learning. We aim to raise up leaders, stimulate economic growth and redefine community development in the African American community. We value openness and cooperation as key components in creating an opportunity for businesses to meet up, exchange views, discuss relevant topics and support each other’s business and personal financial goals.

With the combination of businesses and their collaborative efforts and vision, we will produce a culture of people who share the same values, goals and attitudes that will transform their lives and businesses into a sustainable entity that will bring the African American community together.

Our goal is to maintain a platform where African American business owners and those businesses that serve communities of color can come together to openly discuss their struggles and appeal to the people at large to take a proactive stand to help one another on relevant topics for change.

Operating as a team gives WAO the ability to apply our collective knowledge in a short period of time to affect global change as we transition from a national to, a global organization.
