Hey PH!
My mission with this project is to empower people that the world has given a cold shoulder to. I want to connect aspiring designers from underrepresented groups to strong design mentors in the industry. The best part is, these mentors will be just like you and me. They’ll know the struggle of growing up in an unloving community, getting called names, and having people look at you differently over something you can’t control. They’ll know what it’s like to go through what you’re going through, and they’ll be more than happy to help you rise above it.
If you’re interested in taking the next step to a successful career in design, apply to the Diversity in Design Mentorship Program (http://diversityindesign.co/) for free. Don't fit the criteria but still want to help out? Donate here (https://cash.me/$divdes) to support underrepresented people in design. If you have any questions feel free to reach out: hi at diversityindesign dot co.
