On May 16, 2016, it became legal in USA for regular people to invest as little as $100 in startups and small businesses. Since then, Wefunder has become the largest equity crowdfunding platform; they believe that everyone **not just the wealthy** should be able to invest as little as $100 in the companies they care about.
Whether you're an entrepreneur looking to raise funds, or a curious human interested in learning more about investing, take a look at Wefunder and make sure to check out their awesome job openings (I'm eyeing their product designer role 👀) some of which include perks like mandatory 3 weeks off and reimbursement for your continued education with classes and conferences.

Spotted in our garden this week is Bloomer Loyce who recently took a huge jump outside of her comfort zone and transitioned away from a career in nonprofits to entrepreneurship and fintech! Loyce is now Head of Community & Belonging (can we take a moment to appreciate how incredible that title is...🔥) at Juno, a female-founded early stage startup working to close the gender wealth gap.
I've personally attended some of Juno's events and they've been a uniquely empowering experience for financial wellness and education. And if these are topics you're also keen on learning more about, I highly recommend checking out the Juno community. Oh, and if you happen to be in London in October they will be hosting an *in person* launch party to celebrate the release of the app! 🥳
We love to celebrate you! Send us your articles, videos, artwork, proud moments... let's amplify your work and celebrate your achievements across borders 💜
Special thanks to everyone who contributed! See you next Sunday ☀️
