Here are the tracks each client has access to:
WHY
—
Your donations make it possible for owners to participate in subsidized training. This is especially necessary for startups that are often operating on a shoestring budget. Your funds allow owners to get invaluable expertise to develop the back-office administrative and support functions of their business, while building their core business.
WHERE
—
Your dollars subsidize this effective program costing thousands of dollars to just $300 for our selected owners. This opportunity allows for owners to take advantage of back-office services in the areas of administration, bookkeeping, accounting, human resources, technology and other small business technical assistance, offered under the following three tracks.
WHAT
—
Our initial goal in 2022 was to offer services to 15 clients which then shot up to 20 clients that same year. As of today 41 businesses have participated in the program. For 2024, with your help, we look to have around 60 new businesses benefit form this service.
This is a highly subsided program bringing the cost from thousands of dollars to just $300 for our business owners. Your donation supports access to limited spots in the program. For 2024 we hope to increase from 41 spots to 60 for new owners. Your donations will also help launch another track based on the needs of business owners. To do that we need your help now more than ever before.
