“My experience with Basta has been nothing short of excellent. In addition to the wonderful students we've engaged and hired, Basta's team and leadership have always been passionate, organized and driven to provide the best experience for their cohorts and their partners.”

Lara Sidhu, Beyond 12
“We’re really grateful for the intention that Basta brings to our partnership, the curiosity, and the data-driven approach that Basta takes. They’re deeply aligned to the work that we are doing and allow our coaches and our team to proactively engage with their students for success in the moment, but more importantly, for building out equitable future outcomes for our students and their communities.”

Justin Guarino, Basta Fellow
“Basta's impact on me is immeasurable. If I can put it into words, it has made me feel like I belong in a place like Bloomberg—that I have a voice and that voice is just as important as my colleagues who did not necessarily share my experiences. We should always feel like we belong and can have the same impact regardless of our backgrounds.”
