Business/Entrepreneurship/Workforce Development

Educating and empowering community members on how to invest in themselves through financial planning for college students and adults. Engaging community members on how to prepare life insurance and estate planning. Equipping and training immigrant social innovators, self-starters, and small business owners on how to operate, support, and collaborate with each other. We facilitate and work with World Financial Group (WFG) and business enterprises on how to access city resources, micro-loans and big business enterprises, and accessing capital.

We take part in Immigrant Business Week by promoting businesses and the work and diversity that immigrants add to the city. We do this to honor Caribbean businesses and take the time to appreciate their service to the community.
