First Post, Big Purpose: Calling Students to Spill on All Things Money & College!
Hey everyone! I’m Terrah, and I'm super excited to share my first post here! I’m researching how financial literacy shapes college access for students from low-income urban communities. I’m still looking for student voices, so if this sounds like you (or someone you know), I’d love to hear from you!

This is such important work, Terrah. Thank you for centering student voices in such a meaningful way. I run a social enterprise called Swara in India, where we work to empower women by creating dignified income opportunities through fashion and storytelling. We see firsthand how financial literacy can transform lives, especially in under-resourced communities. Rooting policy in real stories makes all the difference. Cheering you on!
Asha, this is such an amazing initiative! Thank you for your kind words! I’d love to connect with you. I’m always excited to support other women navigating the male-dominated world of entrepreneurship. Swara sounds like an incredible social enterprise, and I really admire the unique approach of not only creating income opportunities but also empowering women to advocate for their financial independence. Would love to chat more and connect on LinkedIn if you’re open to it. Wishing you all the best moving forward! :)
