NABML is a national venture philanthropy dedicated to the founders, families and funders transforming the American classroom from the ground up.
The National Association of Black Microschool Leaders (NABML) changes that by mobilizing non-extractive capital and technical support directly into the hands of those closest to the classroom.
By providing the infrastructure to start, sustain, and scale these innovative models, we ensure that community-led excellence is no longer an exception, but a national standard. Together, we are building an ecosystem where educational freedom and local innovation can finally flourish at scale.
Our School Builder’s Institute founders commit to a 2.5% Reinvestment Pledge from their tuition revenue. This commitment ends the moment the initial investment is recouped, ensuring that their school’s growth directly fuels the launch of the next community-led microschool. It is a circular, non-extractive model that keeps our movement evergreen.
NABML is led by a diverse coalition of educators, founders, and venture experts dedicated to excellence in education.
