Empowering Black Entrepreneurs in Brampton with funding through FACE

At the Federation of African Canadian Economics (FACE), they aim to drive generational wealth powered by sustainable economic resources, capacity and strategic partnerships.

FACE is a national and bilingual Black-led non-profit organization focused on providing resources and information to Black Businesses across Canada to accelerate wealth creation for Canadians of African descent.

Founded in 2021, in partnership with the Federal Government of Canada, FACE created a Black Entrepreneurship Loan Fund to help Black business owners access capital investments, working capital, or additional business resources for expansion. FACE has several partners that assist further the mission of providing Black Canadians with the necessary resources, knowledge, and confidence to operate successfully as Black entrepreneurs and thrive as a community.

Black Entrepreneurship Loan Fund (BELF) - This program supports Black business owners by providing loans ranging from $10,000 to $250,000. It's designed to enhance access to capital and promote growth within Black-owned businesses.
