Camden, NJ- On Tuesday, March 23, 2021 LAEDA WBC along with the Southern NJ chapter of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc. hosted a resourceful event for COVID-19 resources for small businesses. The event titled, “Minding My Own Business: COVID-19 Resources for Your Business,” brought together people from different groups, different business industries and in different stages of their entrepreneurial journey for a discussion filled with information and resources to help entrepreneurs facing the everyday challenges of COVID-19 pandemic. The goal of this workshop, sponsored by Wells Fargo, was to assist business owners with finding COVID-19 resources. Whether it’s the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and Loan forgiveness or the upcoming Shuttered Venues Operators Grant (SVOG) the workshop offered more information about ways to manage business risk and crisis.
