Marvelous Light Empowerment Association
Closing the women's wealth gap in Georgia - one business at a time.
The wealth of Georgia’s women lags behind that of men in Georgia, as well as women nationwide. As key drivers of Georgia’s economy, women, particularly women of color, face enduring economic inequality.
Business ownership is a primary wealth-building strategy. Through our programs, we teach the foundational basics of launching and managing a successful business. We also aim to fortify the hard and soft skills essential to professional success.
Marvelous Light Empowerment Association has been dedicated to improving women’s economic equity since 2007.
Our Work
Strengthening foundations to build stronger businesses
Many entrepreneurs start with a great idea and move straight to launching their business. Some even achieve financial success before ever sitting down to evaluate their structure. Unfortunately, most “spontaneous entrepreneurs” end up failing because they have no plan to build on. Our Woman University and Business Builders programs help you form these essential foundations.
Our Goals
Economic empowerment through business education
Even with the best planning, day-to-day challenges can derail business growth. Strong foundations make it easier to pivot when needed.
Increase long-term sustainability
For women-owned businesses throughout the Atlanta MSA
Conquer growth roadblocks
With grants for operational & strategic purchases
We challenge participants to review their ways of thinking, perspectives, and hidden biases that keep them from interacting positively – or at all – with communities outside their own.
Our graduates regularly return to support us by becoming coaches in our Woman University and Business Builders programs.
Testimonials
From our graduates
Woman U brought spiritual support, clarity, structure, connections and emotional support. My company, Clear Communication Solutions was given divine validation, direction, and purpose.
What Woman U did for me is provide structure, stability, comfort, encouragement, and lots of resources and connections. I have more clarity of my vision and confidence in walking out in my purpose.
