We are a band of five contrarian women trying to shake things up, challenge the status quo, incite others to join- united to make difference in eastern North Carolina. We believe that our success depends on how deeply we engage in community with community. We dig to find the diamonds in the rough and leverage our collective gifts to help those diamonds shine.

Whether an innovative idea, a startup, a fledgling non-profit with passion but limited capacity or a regional institution, we are committed to work with everyone to create hope and opportunity for all.

We embrace collaboration and hunger for philanthropy to band with us. While our name will not be found on buildings or billboards, we hope that this work will create positive and impactful results for many years to come.
