August is National Black-Owned Business Month
Across the United States, Black-Owned businesses make up about 10 percent of small businesses. As leaders and advocates, Black entrepreneurs make their communities vibrant and resilient every day—not just in August. As we take this opportunity to give special attention to these entrepreneurs during Black-Owned Business Month, we hope you’ll join us in this support by shopping #BlackOwned year-round!
