Creating Relentless Opportunity…

This initiative is designed to support black owned businesses, entrepreneurs, and creators who are relentless and actively building with limited resources, support, and visibility, despite producing real and consistent results. The focus is on extending visibility, creating recognition, and directing support with intention.

  • This initiative operates through a simple but intentional structure:

    • Individuals and businesses are nominated based on demonstrated work and consistency.

    • Nominees are added to a running list.

    • Support is distributed over time in the order recognition is established.

    • A consultant not only works to strengthen the company’s foundation, but funds the process, while the company is able to focus its direct funds on strategic efforts.

    • Visibility and support move together.

  • This initiative is open to Black-owned businesses, entrepreneurs, and creators who are actively building.

    To receive funding, the business must be legally established or agree to be formally filed. A business bank account must also be in place, or be established prior to the distribution of funds.

    These are considered foundational steps. Nomination into this initiative provides access to services that support completing these requirements, with all associated fees covered as part of the nomination and not deducted from any direct award issued to the nominee.

  • A portion of funds from this campaign is allocated toward advancing the initiative and supporting next steps that align with growing businesses and artistry. This includes covering foundational support such as business formation, financial setup, a website and related services.

    A separate portion is directly issued to to Black-owned businesses, entrepreneurs and artists to accelerate growth, expand resources, and increase visibility. These funds are provided in full and are not required to be used for foundational setup.
