Black Business Support Events in Georgia and Pennsylvania
The Brown Mamas Marketplace will occur in Pittsburgh on Small Business Saturday, aiming to support Black mom-owned businesses through sales opportunities and entrepreneurial education. Organizer Muffy Mendoza, who founded Brown Mamas, Inc., emphasizes the need for resources and community support for Black women entrepreneurs, highlighting the event's focus on womb, wealth, and wellness. Meanwhile, the Southern Georgia Black Chambers are hosting their 2024 Black Business Gala on December 14, celebrating achievements within the Black business community and featuring keynote speaker Terri Denison from the SBA. Black entrepreneurs face unique challenges, including limited access to capital and role models, as illustrated by business owner James Carter, whose firm benefits from support programs like Entrepreneurs Forever. This nonprofit recently received a $250,000 grant to assist Black-owned businesses in increasing their revenues through peer learning groups. Small Business Saturday, an initiative started by American Express, encourages local shopping and has gained recognition since its inception in 2010.
