Wings of Growth
About Us
We are a non-profit organization dedicated to helping underserved entrepreneurs overcome barriers and start successful, sustainable small businesses.
Wings of Growth was founded in 2024 by entrepreneur Kiley Doll, a serial entrepreneur and business woman who knows all about the struggles of launching a new business. Kiley has mentored many new business owners, all of whom struggle with the same thing: how to get up and running without spending thousands of dollars in education and start-up costs. She is the founder of Business in a Box and established WOG to be a catalyst for economic mobility for aspiring entrepreneurs lacking resources.
WOG’s goal is to grow from a local program working with a few entrepreneurs to a nationwide nonprofit that will help thousands of entrepreneurs start successful businesses. From cleaning services to food trucks to beauty salons, we strive to empower underserved communities to build better futures through small business ownership.
As we look ahead, we aim to expand our training programs and corporate sponsorships to help even more entrepreneurs across the country access the tools they need to thrive. We are committed to breaking down barriers to business ownership and creating economic opportunity for all.

Kiley Doll’s entrepreneurial spirit has been evident since birth. With over 25 years of business experience across various industries, she is a seasoned expert dedicated to guiding aspiring entrepreneurs.
Kiley’s passion for empowering struggling business owners comes from the challenges she has faced firsthand. She describes herself as the “world’s worst employee” – much preferring to chart her own path instead of following the typical corporate rulebook. Kiley proudly embraces her non-traditional attitude to inspire other women to lead by example.
With an insatiable appetite for sales and entrepreneurship, Kiley has worked with major brands like Amazon, Entrepreneurs’ Organization, and Long Realty Company in North America, Europe, and Africa. She got her start in the professional services sector which lit a spark for business that still burns brightly today. In Kiley’s words, “If you’re crazy about something, nothing can stop you from convincing someone else to be crazy about it too.”
Beyond her own ventures, female empowerment is a cause dear to Kiley’s heart. She runs mentorship programs for women in the US and developing countries. As a board member of Services to Abused Families, Inc (SAFE), Kiley is dedicated to supporting victims of domestic violence and sexual assault in her local Culpeper community.
Kiley firmly believes every entrepreneur, especially women, minorities, and other underserved groups deserve the chance to achieve their dreams. She started Wings of Growth to provide the training, tools and support she wishes she had access to when first starting out. Through her nonprofit, Kiley is committed to sharing her experience and inspiring the next generation of business owners.
