Reflect, Support and Act:
A message from Founders Circle and The Circle

Founders Circle and The Circle stands with the Black community. As a team, we are focusing on the following: Words are better than silence. Actions are better than words. 

Racism against black people in America is not OK. Period. 

If like us, you’re trying to figure out what’s your next step, we are encouraging each other to reflect, to support, to act. Here are a few resources to help us all strive towards that.
