Genavive Ramirez

Founder of Winged Founders & the Fortune Cookie Foundation

Meet the founder

I’m Genavive, the founder of Winged Founders. I’m a computer science student who started my first social impact project in my bedroom at sixteen, and I’ve been mentoring other changemakers ever since.

I operate by the belief that every young person deserves the chance to turn adversity into growth through building meaningful projects. I want young people navigating hardship to have the guidance I wished I had as a teenager, which is why I started Winged Founders and the Fortune Cookie Foundation, a nonprofit changing how we take care of youth mental health.

If you’re a bedroom founder building from constraints, WF was made with you in mind: personalized roadmaps with milestones tailored to your profile, opportunity matching to save you hours of solo research, storytelling that turns lived experience into a mission people root for, and 1:1 mentorship in a doc.

If anything here resonates with you, I’d love to hear from you. Reach out at everuhz@gmail.com. If you have questions about anything around the site, I’d be more than happy to help! :]
