Mentoring on the Moments

As we celebrate Black History Month, the Onyx Cafe is proud to present an exciting event providing mentorship and guidance from our top black female leaders. The Speed Mentoring February event at Oliver House will bring together ten remarkable women who have impacted their communities. Attendees can pick the brains of these inspiring figures and gain valuable insights into how they achieved success in their fields. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to connect with some influential African-American women!

We look forward to seeing you on February 23rd at the Onyx Cafe in Oliver House. Together, we can empower women and create a brighter future for generations!

Black History Month is an opportunity to look back at the past. Honor those who have come before us, and pay homage to the incredible achievements of black women’s leaders in our community today. This event will be a learning experience for all involved. We hope it will foster meaningful conversations about equality and justice.
