The powerful forward of the LSU Tigers has never backed down from speaking her heart out. Her several NIL deals only support her cause to bring the word out. Following the same, Angel Reese has joined hands with the multinational investment bank and financial services company, Goldman Sachs. This is to contribute to one of her favorite causes, fulfilling black women’s dreams. However, this time, she is not doing it alone as her mother is also involved in the deal during Women’s History Month.

Angel Reese recently shared a post on her Instagram with a video advertisement for Goldman Sachs and their latest stint, “One Million Black Women.” Reese talks about the impact her mother has had on her through the years.

She also very joyously introduced her mom’s contribution saying, “Thanks to my mom @angelzeta410 for joining me as we teamed up with @goldmansachs One Million Black Women to show why it’s so important for Black women to be able to build their own financial legacy — but to do that, we need to help narrow the racial wealth gap. We’re asking Congress to do their part – it’s time to advance the ball.”
