Celebrate Black History Month and Women Entrepreneurs

Join us for a founder chat with Joy Fowler, co-founder of A MIRacle Foundation.

About this event

Celebrate black-owned businesses and organizations at the first 2022 event of our Standard Chartered Women+Tech Network programming. We will speak with Joy Fowler, co-founder of A MIRacle Foundation.

A MIRacle Foundation, Inc. was formed by Allen and Joy Fowler after the loss of their son, Amir Samuel Fowler, in 2012. Amir had a neurological disorder, developmental delays and was deemed medically fragile by age 5. To honor his memory, a foundation was formed to help other families, children and caregivers.

We will begin with the discussion at 6:00pm EST, and the last 15 minutes of this event will be saved for guided networking.

This event will take place via Zoom. Registrants will receive the Zoom link. 

This event is proudly sponsored by Standard Chartered Bank, as part of its Women's Technology Incubator at The City College of New York.
