GRACIE GEORGE

Board Member

Gracie George joined ABEP’s Board in January of  2020. She is a Compliance Professional with 8+ years of experience working in the Financial Industry. She has a B.A. in Economics from Penn State University and is currently pursuing an M.A. in Legal Studies with a focus in Regulatory Compliance. She joined ABEP’s Board because she believes in ABEP’s mission of working to address the economic inequities in the black community.

What does economic power mean to me?

It means an increased standard of living. It means better housing. It means more successful black businesses and more jobs within the black community.

At the bottom of education, at the bottom of politics, even at the bottom of religion, there must be for our race, economic independence.
