Road to Economic Empowerment Enterprises, founded by Angela Willis, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to collaborating with the business community. Our focus lies in delivering professional and personal development opportunities in the realms of financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and affordable housing education. Often likened to SCORE with a financial twist, our mission is clear: "Providing strategies on building wealth and reshaping the culture for those living in underserved communities."
Road to Economic Empowerment Enterprises has been at the forefront of community empowerment since 2006, spearheaded by a dedicated community organizer and event coordinator committed to fostering professional and personal development in underserved areas within Dallas County. Through a robust background in community outreach and event planning, this organization has made significant strides in promoting financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and mental health wellness.
About Angela
Angela has a heart for educating and serving the community. She wears a number of hats such as real estate agent, author, writer, speaker, caregiver, educator community advocate but her purpose in life is empowering people. After attaining her real estate license in 2005, Angela launched the Road to Economic Empowerment First Time Home-buyer's Seminar. Due to the lack of financial literacy in her community she later renamed it, The Road to Economic Empowerment Financial Education Seminar . According to statistics, one of the fastest ways to build wealth is through real estate. Studies also show that when it comes to home ownership, African Americans are delayed mainly due to poor credit and having a high amount of debt.
Angela is not a stranger to caring and the cost of caring for the elderly either. For over ten years, Angela has cared for her elderly parents who were both diagnosed with Dementia during the early 2010's. Caregiving for a loved one is an honor but it can also be lonely and often financially tedious. Sometimes caregivers are forced to choose between retiring early or going into bankruptcy just to keep expenses down. As a result, Angela decided to raise awareness by hosting The Cost of Caregiving: Alzheimer's and Caregivers Financial Health Symposium.
The Symposium brought in a task force of experts who specialize in the areas of financial and legal planning, elderlaw, clinical studies, nutrition, veterans benefits, and other related areas. The purpose of this program is to bring awareness, support, and access to resources for Dementia Caregivers.
At R2EE Enterprises we believe in order to have more economic empowerment we must be proactive and intentional about (1) improving our financial literacy, (2) mental health wellness,(3) reshaping the culture by empowering our youth on how to become leaders and culture change agents through entrepreneurship. We believe that in order to achieve more economic empowerment we must work together and master our mindset by being disciplined in our spending and focus on becoming owners versus renters.
Our scripture basis is Romans 12:2 NLT, which says "Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect."
