52Feminists.com was a web-based project featuring short profiles of women (a few men are included) who market themselves as feminist entrepreneurs. Most of those profiled were Americans working in corporate or creative industries, charities, or feminist non-profit organizations. Several are business owners promoting their companies or professional services. A few reside in other countries.4

A 52Feminists.com photo gallery from the 2017 Women’s March showed participants waving signs with non-corporate-friendly slogans such as: “Bitch Better Have My Planned Parenthood Money,” “Paul Ryan We Also Hate You,” and “Why Are Men in Charge When They Can’t Even Find the Clit?”6

She is a board member for the Get in Touch Foundation, which teaches breast cancer screening, a marketing advisor for the Innovadores Foundation, a non-profit that provides mentoring and investment for Cuban technology and fashion start-ups, and she was social media and communications director for the charity Kayak for a Cause.8
