Dec 2021 Events, Opportunities & Connections!
Hola ,
We've got one more week before we say ADIOS to 2021.
You know what that means, we asses the past year, talk about goals, decide on the word of the year all while eating our uvas and throwing out the water. Oh yeah, don't forget to wear the right color undies!
Our goal for the new year is to continue to build our community and support you in your professional growth.
One of the ways we will do this is by featuring Latinx businesses with a gift guide for each and every holiday. And it will always be FREE to apply. Go ahead and apply for Valentines guide here!
We wish you a safe, happy and healthy Año Nuevo!
REMEMBER TO TAKE ACTION.

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.
