Flyte, which stands for Financial Learning You Take Everywhere, is a New Orleans-based nonprofit that empowers Black women business owners with skills and resources to overcome systemic financial inequities.

Our main goals are to stabilize and strengthen cohort members' personal finances and position their businesses to access long-term capital by the end of each program year.
