The Byllye Avery Genius Society is a community of like-minded people who are deeply connected to BWHI’s core mission to advance the physical, emotional, and financial health of Black women and girls across the country.

Byllye Avery founded BWHI in 1983 as the National Black Women’s Project, to help protect and advance the health and wellness of Black women and girls. With an annual gift of $500 or more, Avery Society members provide the leadership, vision, and resources that are critical to carrying out her work and mission to fuel health policy, advocacy, education, research, and leadership development for Black women and girls. Society members receive special invitations to in-person and virtual events and discussions throughout the year, from policy briefings to social engagements. Now more than ever, we need you to help shape the future of health for Black women and girls.
