( ENSPIRE Feature ) Dwayne Ashley, CEO of Bridge Philanthropic Consulting Has The Largest African American Owned Fundraising Firm

Dwayne Ashley has the largest African American owned fundraising firm, which has contributed $800 million to different companies. He started his firm on faith, pursuing what he wanted, and did not let any rejections nor obstacles get in his way from building his firm. Some of the obstacles that Dwayne faced was being multiracial in a nontraditional field, as well as starting his own firm.

Dwayne was inspired by his growth in the field, so he decided to take a leap of faith and build his own firm. “After working for years in managing other businesses and driving growth, I decided it was time for me to dedicate my time to invest in building my own business and brand with a mission to specifically support communities of color,” said Dwayne.
