The Catalyst Collective (Organisation CIC)
The Catalyst Collective provides mentoring for the next generation of Black Women. We believe that mentoring can be a powerful intervention in the lives of young women. We recruit, train, match and support young professional Black women with Black teenagers for year-long, meaningful mentoring relationships. Vision: The vision of The Catalyst Collective is to create a society in which Black women are well represented in all educational and professional settings, and Black teenagers can access a range of representative role models to inspire them and to help them develop towards achieving their goals. Objectives: The Catalyst operates with three core objectives: 1. To connect young Black women with relatable role models to act as mentors for a year of high-quality mentoring. 2. To support mentees and mentors in achieving SMART goals which will help them to progress towards future aspirations. 3. To create a rewarding and quality volunteering experience that develops the leadership skills of professional Black women and provides them with access to a wider network and other opportunities.
