Blacks on the Brink of Greatness

Kat Calvin is an entrepreneur at heart. She founded #BlackGirlsHack, an organization that hopes to inspire and mentor young African-American women who are interested in computer programming. But before starting #BlackGirlsHack, she founded Character’s Closet, a website that leads you to sites where you can by clothes from your favorite TV show. She also started Michelle in Training—named after our first lady—to help educate and mentor girls in the Washington, D.C., area.
