ELEVATED CITIES is set to launch in early 2023 with support from Mastercard through their “In Solidarity” initiative, a program launched in 2021 dedicated to investing in Black communities across the U.S. by generating funding and opportunities for Black-owned Businesses.
ELEVATED CITIES builds on Our Village United’s ELEVATE program which works to provide wrap-around support for solopreneurs and microbusinesses through targeted capital grants, technical assistance, shared professional services, and wellness support for the business owner.
ELEVATED CITIES will impact Black-owned businesses across Atlanta, Los Angeles, St. Louis, New Orleans, New York City, Dayton, Birmingham, Washington D.C., Maryland and Virginia to deliver strategies and practices that will scale these businesses for growth. Selected small businesses will be awarded grants ranging from $10,000-$15,000.
