At Nashville Entrepreneur Center, we love celebrating our founders’ wins—and today, we’re shining a spotlight on Project FinTech 2025 Spring cohort participant Ray’Chel Wilson, co-founder of ForOurLastNames and a rising leader in financial technology.
Ray’Chel has been accepted into the prestigious Princeton Theological Seminary POLARIS Young Adult Leadership Network, where she is recognized as a fintech leader. This opportunity aligns with her mission to bridge fintech innovation with faith-based economic development, helping first-generation wealth builders turn financial trauma into financial action.
Through this network, Ray’Chel hopes to connect with faith-based investors and supporters, opening new pathways for financial empowerment. And the momentum doesn’t stop there—ForOurLastNames recently secured funding from Invested Faith, a nonprofit dedicated to investing in social enterprises that drive meaningful change.
Congratulations, Ray’Chel! Your work is an inspiration, and we can’t wait to see the impact you continue to make.
