Continuing to build partnerships across the nation, the African American Entrepreneurs Association added hometown support for their efforts in February with the addition of AdventHealth Daytona Beach.

“It is a privilege to provide support for programs led by the African American Entrepreneurs Association, one of our valuable community partners," said David Weis, president and CEO, AdventHealth Daytona Beach and the East Volusia market. "It is our pleasure to provide funding to help support the MLK Barrier Breaker Series 'The Nine' initiative, annual Black History Month and Mind Your Business Mental Health Program initiative."

Since inception, the AAEA has served hundreds of African American and minority business owners, providing training, access to capital, professional networking opportunities, counseling and more, connecting them to the resources needed for success as small business owners in the community.

“This contribution from AdventHealth signifies more than just financial support; it symbolizes a shared vision of creating opportunities and uplifting voices that may have been marginalized or underserved,” AAEA Founder and CEO Leslie Giscombe said.
