It’s Time for Action
The fight for racial justice cannot wait any longer.
For the next 100 days, the Kapor family of organizations will jointly demonstrate their commitment to fighting against anti-blackness and for racial justice in our political, educational and economic systems.
We are advocating to close the digital divide, and improve equity in STEM and CS education.
We are supporting efforts to mobilize Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities to ensure their voices are heard across our political system.
We are expanding pathways into tech, improving D&I practices, and deploying capital to entrepreneurs of color.
