Over the course of our lives, we have noticed the lack of resources and exposure to opportunities in our communities. We grew tired of seeing underrepresented youth not having access to both educational and professional opportunities because of their socioeconomic status. Our mission is to see young people from underprivileged backgrounds unlock their fullest potential and achieve their educational and professional dreams.

Thus, last summer, we set out on a journey to provide a solution to this perpetual problem. After a year of reflection, testing the market and determination to be the change we want to see; our solution is Invure!

Invure is a platform that leverages the power of social media and new age technology as a tool to connect, educate and inspire the underrepresented. We aim to provide them with an equal opportunity to discover resources, meet potential mentors, and connect with other ambitious youth in a positive and supportive community.

We are passionate about investing in the youth so that we may all have a brighter future. Please follow our journey and subscribe to our email list to find out once we’ve reached the app store at Invure.org ! Help us to invest in the future by connecting with and supporting us on Instagram and Facebook, see what Invure has in store for the future!

Yours truly,

Shania & Lauren
