What is The BIZ Stoop?
The Black Intergenerational Zeal Stoop is a premier social enterprise built for and by millennials. Our vision is to exponentially increase the life expectancy of Black youth beyond age 25. The BIZ Stoop disproves the narrative that the only way to "make it out" is to uproot people and embodies the spirit of "making it through" with cooperative economics.
