FOURONESIXLOVE INC. • August 17, 2020

FOURONESIXLOVE INC. is a Black owned company and based in Toronto, ON, founded by Ms. Ellisha Ricketts, also known as Ellie. By motivating and inspiring the Black community and Afrodiasporas, FourOneSixLove Inc. is driven to contribute and influence flattering change to the mindset.



Committed firstly to the Black community in Canada and beyond, there is an obligation to herself, her family and the world to uncover and revitalize the beauty that lies within us. Dedicated to ensuring that a solid foundation is laid, the plans are to build up our future with a broad range of events, various diverse support programs and much more.



FOURONESIXLOVE INC. is a legacy being created by one person incorporating the masses. Currently, Ellie is shedding light on the wonderful work that individuals are doing in the community and beyond. She hosts a radio show that can also be seen on Instagram and YouTube called ‘What’s the 411?’ every Monday night at 8pm. She takes pride in searching for different individuals who are doing great things, bringing them onto the show to interview them and expose the work that they are involved in.


Ellie is also involved in contributing to change in her neighborhood. She most recently held a walk at Rowntree Mills Park in order to create awareness around the restrictions to access for the park. The walk was called
‘Netwalk’ and the purpose was to get exercise and network at the same time, while educating the walkers on the history of the park. The walk received more exposure than she expected and the results were epic to say the least. Due to her push for change, the park officials have since decided to work with the community on adhering to the request of Ellie and the community.

On August 22, 2020 Ellie will be hosting a 12-hour International Virtual Summit called ‘A Seat at OUR table’. This is a call for members of the Black community across the world to collaborate, communicate and participate in supporting one another in our push to success. She explains the table is the community and the chair is the work you possess.







Calling everyone who is looking to move forward in a positive direction and help to build the table, to pull a seat up to the table. This is the first of a seasonal effort to push for change among our Black community, looking for solidarity worldwide. 


Ellie speaks about mindset and the seriousness of knowing how to organize our minds and discipline our thoughts. Previously a Professor at Seneca College, Ellie aspires to teach the masses the importance of Mindset training. Understanding the difference between the conscious and the subconscious mind and then applying that information to help change your life.

 
It starts from within, if we can make small movements towards being a better person, then we can be better to each other; and this is the ultimate goal. Her slogan reads ‘For US, by US, SO join US, a call to the community!’. Discover more at
