Help An Amiga & Collabs

Nury Castillo asks...


Buenos días ladies,

I’m launching a social media podcast that will focus on highlighting authors: telling their journey (in hopes to inspire or facilitate someone else’s), sharing their inspiration for writing, their schedule as a writer, best advice, best lessons, and of course their book. If you know a published author, help me share!

✅ Comcast RISE - FEATURED

We are excited to share that Comcast has launched a multi-year, multi-faceted initiative designed to help strengthen small businesses owned by people of color, who were hit hardest by the pandemic. Going beyond funding and one-time donations, Comcast RISE is helping latinx business owners take stock, rebuild, and achieve their goals now, and in the future.


Comcast RISE stands for “Representation, Investment, Strength and Empowerment”, and brings together two of the company’s brands — Comcast Business and Effectv, both with expertise in the small business space — to help empower business owners with the tools, expertise and resources needed to navigate the economic effects of the pandemic. Recipients will receive help with their marketing, media campaigns and creation of 30-second commercials, as well as website and tech upgrades.


Qualifying businesses can apply to receive consulting, media and creative production services from Effectv, the advertising sales division of Comcast Cable, or technology upgrades from Comcast Business. Comcast RISE is now accepting applications from small businesses owned by people of color.


✅ Go to www.ComcastRISE.com to learn more and share with your favorite Latinx business owner, so that we may continue to rise, together.
