The Vault

Thinking of the adage to “pull yourself up by your bootstraps,” we realize that not all communities and individuals have “boots.” The Vault aims to give underserved populations and disenfranchised communities these proverbial “boots” through the development of a hub and entrepreneurial ecosystem that facilitates small business development and sustainability, as well as community-led enrichment.

PAD Publishing

A passion project of Phillip Alexander Downie. PAD Publishing features empowering stories for Black people.

Modern depictions often portray an inaccurate depiction of the African diaspora. Phillip Alexander is working with individual creators and organizations to publish kids books and peer-review articles, for all of our brothers and sisters, that give an accurate portrayal of our history and culture.
