Melissa Allder identifies as a Black Caribbean Canadian woman. She was born in England and immigrated to Canada at a young age. Her pronouns are she and her.
Melissa (Kennesaw State University Georgia MEd) is an educator, advocate and a changemaker.
Melissa is known for both her educational and community leadership. She continues to not only advocate for marginalized students, but she makes an intentional effort to create a safe online platform for educators, students, and community members to share their experiences and concerns through various social media platforms.
One personal element about Melissa is that she is a recent breast cancer conqueror. She openly shared her vulnerability and strength to the world.
Melissa has brought awareness about Black women and breast cancer health disparities with Rethink Breast Cancer Nonprofit and was featured in Rethink’s ‘Uncovered: A Breast Recognition Project’ a resource that focuses on the breast cancer experiences of Black, Indigenous and People of Colour.
Today, Melissa’s passion project is creating financially accessible natural skincare, bath and body products through her small business “The Black Lotus BodyCare Co.” and she continues to advocate for others by donating proceeds to various non-profit organizations, while continuously empowering people who have been impacted by systemic and institutionalized inequities.
