About Mel Miller Foundation
The Mel Miller Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting women in business through mentorship, education, and community. Founded in honor of Mel Miller, the Foundation carries forward her belief in relationships, generosity, and lifting others.
Why We Exist
The Mel Miller Foundation exists because Mel Miller believed deeply in the power of relationships, shared knowledge, and women supporting one another. She understood that access to the right people, guidance, and resources could change the trajectory of a business and a life.
Mel was a connector, mentor, and champion for women in business. Her superpower was seeing in others what they could not yet see in themselves, and encouraging them to step into that potential with confidence.
The Foundation carries her beliefs forward by supporting programs that expand access to mentorship, education, and community.
