Meet the Founder

Juliette Bengone Ngoua

Founder, Women of African Descent Network

Juliette’s commitment to community began when she started volunteering in Africa at age 16. Originally from Gabon and now based in Delaware, she has also built businesses and supported the work of other women entrepreneurs.

In 2025, she brought women together in a WhatsApp group spanning countries and languages. That community helped shape her vision for WADN: a network where women of African descent can connect, share their work, and advocate for dignity and women’s rights—while welcoming women of every culture.
