Our entrepreneurship program offers education, tools, and resources to small businesses owners to empower them to adapt and sustain in a dynamic, evolving economy. In partnership with Mastercard, our Business Builder Program has equipped numerous small businesses in Los Angeles with a wide array of skills, resources, and opportunities to sustain and grow their businesses.
Our program covers a diverse range of topics essential for entrepreneurial success, including strategies for securing capital, cybersecurity best practices, effective social media marketing techniques, proficient accounting and bookkeeping methods, tax management, and beyond. Here, participants have the opportunity to deepen their expertise and refine their skills across these critical areas, setting the stage for sustained growth and prosperity.
Incorporating a blend not expert-led instruction and immersive hands-on raining, our program ensures participants gain a comprehensive understanding of each topic. Moreover, to further support their journey, we provide grants at the end of each cohort. These grants empower recipients to leverage their newfound skills and knowledge, catalyzing tangible growth and development within their businesses.
Through three flourishing cohorts, we have supported a substantial number of individuals who have not only thrived in their businesses but also spurred further expansion of our program. Many cohort members have enthusiastically return for subsequent cohorts to deepen their learning, showcasing a remarkable retention rate.
