Upon completion of this program, these women will be eligible to apply for a small business loan through The Black Woman Loan Fund. Starting April of this year, Buy From a Black Woman will be distributing microloans to Black Women Business Owners to help with funding their businesses. It's part of our long term plan to help remove some of the barriers that comes with operating and scaling a business.
Join us in welcoming our first cohort and make sure to follow them on their Socials to learn more about their businesses and follow their journey through the program.
