Starting a business can be a daunting experience for anyone, but for women of color, it can often be even more challenging. Those who choose to become entrepreneurs face unique obstacles, including a lack of representation and resources. According to a report by American Express, women of color are the fastest-growing group of entrepreneurs, yet they still receive less than 1% of venture capital funding. At Casheley Co., the struggles that women face when starting a business are well understood.

Through networking, research, and friendship, Cas and Ash have used their struggles as opportunities to grow and learn. They understand that no one can succeed alone, and that building a strong support system is essential to achieving your goals. The desire to share that information and prevent others from going through the same struggles is what birthed Casheley Co.
