Constant Contact Empowers Small Businesses with AI Tools and Support

In Kansas City, the movement Generating Income For Tomorrow (GIFT) is making strides in addressing the racial wealth gap by empowering Black-owned businesses like Haul Pros. With a $25,000 grant from GIFT, Haul Pros upgraded its operations, acquiring a new truck that allowed them to expand their services and create 18 new jobs. This initiative also included comprehensive support such as business coaching and marketing assistance, which are vital for sustainable growth. Meanwhile, Constant Contact is focusing on small businesses by simplifying digital marketing through AI-driven tools, enabling owners with limited resources to effectively reach their customers. The company serves over 500,000 clients globally, emphasizing its commitment to support small business owners with intuitive marketing solutions. Additionally, organizations like the Alliance for Immigrant Respect and Education aim to provide resources and support for immigrants in northwest Arkansas, reflecting a broader effort to foster community resilience and economic empowerment.
