 Introduction to Community Business Partnership

 Created in 1995, the Community Business Partnership is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization. It was formed in response to an identified need for small business technical assistance and financing services, particularly to low-moderate income and disadvantaged individuals, including minorities, women and the disabled.
 
While providing high quality training and counseling to all small businesses, the Partnership seeks to provide a financing alternative to benefit those unable to attract a commercial loan or other traditional source of funds.

Over the past decade Community Business Partnership has grown to five distinct programs.

Please click on the logos to find out more about the individual programs, or attend our free one hour orientation.
