On this episode of The Day with Trae, guest host Deontay Damper spoke with Franchesca Vargas, a devoted mother of four and the founder of Elevate PR Management, a business dedicated to supporting underrepresented voices. Through her company, she seeks to empower local businesses, artists, community organizations, and black/brown-led nonprofits by offering PR and event planning services. Elevate PR Management’s mission is to help these groups increase their visibility, promote their work, and create positive change. The company aims to build lasting relationships with clients and contribute to a more equitable and just society.

Fancy views art as a powerful tool for social change, capable of transcending boundaries and inspiring transformation. She believes art has the unique ability to touch hearts, challenge existing viewpoints, and prompt action. Through her work, Fancy uses art to address social injustices, giving voice to marginalized communities and advocating for systemic change. Her artistic practice becomes a platform for raising awareness, fostering empathy, and encouraging individuals to speak out against oppression. By empowering people to express their grievances and share their stories, Fancy envisions art as a means of collective mobilization, uniting individuals around shared causes and sparking progress. For her, art is not just an aesthetic pursuit but a potent vehicle for societal transformation.
