Financial Group To Help Black/Minority Owned Businesses Gain Access To A Portion Of $10M In Capital

Lack of access to capital and cash flow is the biggest challenge for African-American small business owners and potential start ups.

To help Black and minority business owners gain access to the funds they need to grow, World Business Lenders founded the African American Chamber Fund with an initial investment of $10 million.

The group has arranged to make that money available in initial loans for African American Chamber of Commerce members.

Archbishop David Billings III, Fund Vice Chair for the African American Chamber Fund and Executive Director, Derrick Chambers spoke with Roland Martin during Wednesday's edition of #RolandMartinUnfiltered about their plans to help Black and minority owned businesses gain access to capital.
