Small Businesses, You Can Give

Small Businesses Have Told Us That Having Cash In Their Pocket Is One Of The Primary Things That They Need.

In October 2008, When The Credit Crunch Hit, Small Businesses Were Really Crushed By The Lack Of Capital.

It's Not Government That Creates Jobs; It's Small Business. Our Job Is To Make Sure They Have The Access To Capital, The Access To Contracting Opportunities, And The Help, Advice And Mentoring That They Need To Go Out And Be Successful.

I Think We've Learned That The S.b.a. Plays A Critical Role In Providing Access And Opportunity When The Market Is Not Providing That Access. We Help Banks Get That Money Out Into The Hands Of Important And Viable Businesses, Particularly Those Owned By Minorities, Women, Immigrants And Veterans.

I Recently Had The Opportunity To Participate In 'inc.''s First-ever 'hire Power Awards' Event In Washington, D.c. The Event Was A Testament To The Power Of American Entrepreneurship And The Role That It Plays In Driving Job Creation And Innovation In A Wide Array Of Industries.
