Founder of Time for Change Foundation & BBOP Center Recognized Alongside Award-Winning Actress Sharon Stone for Global Impact on Women
BEVERLY HILLS, CA—- The We Do It Together (WDIT) 10-Year Anniversary Gala was a historic celebration of women who are rewriting narratives, shifting power, and creating access where it never existed. Among these global changemakers, Dr. Kim Carter-Tillman, founder of Time for Change Foundation and the Black and Brown Opportunities for Profit (BBOP) Center, was honored with the prestigious Game Changer Award. Dr. Carter-Tillman received this honor alongside Academy Award–nominated composer Diane Warren, director Patricia Riggen, philanthropist Dr. Rita Ali, model Bianca Balti, Beverly Hills Mayor Dr. Sharona Nazarian, and internationally acclaimed actress and activist Sharon Stone. Being celebrated next to a cultural icon like Sharon Stone underscores the magnitude of this recognition: women whose voices, platforms, and leadership continue to shift what’s possible for millions of others.
A Night Celebrating 10 Years of WDIT and the Power of Women Leading Their Own Stories
The gala marked a decade of We Do It Together’s transformational work in creating films, narratives, and media that center women, not as side characters, not as background voices, but as subjects with agency, dignity, and power. For Dr. Carter-Tillman, this mission aligns directly with the heart of the work she has led for over two decades: Uplifting overlooked voices, creating pathways for women to rise, building economic freedom, transforming systems that were never built for marginalized communities, ensuring women control their own stories, financially, socially, and generationally
“Dr. Carter-Tillman embodies what it means to change the narrative,” WDIT shared. “She transforms lives on the ground, every day. She builds systems where women don’t just survive, they lead.”
A Trailblazer for Equity, Access, and Economic Power
Dr. Carter-Tillman has built a national reputation for opening doors where they never existed, including housing and healing services for formerly incarcerated women, holistic reentry pathways, family reunification, trauma-informed programming, entrepreneurship development, access to capital for underestimated founders, technology, AI readiness, and digital inclusion.
Her leadership created the Time for Change Foundation, which has helped thousands of women rebuild their lives, and the BBOP Center, a first-of-its-kind entrepreneurial hub that empowers Black, Brown, and overlooked founders to build, scale, and access economic resources.
Her Game Changer Award recognizes not only her transformational impact but her relentless fight to reshape who has access to capital, opportunity, and power.
Representation Is Power, And So Is Economic Freedom
When women succeed in business and leadership, entire communities benefit. When narratives expand, opportunities expand. When access opens, families rise. The Game Changer Award celebrates Dr. Carter-Tillman’s unwavering commitment to ensuring women, especially women of color, are not just represented, but centered in: business, leadership, wealth building, media, policy, community transformation. And it ties directly to WDIT’s mission: when women control the narrative, the story changes, for everyone.
