SPRINGFIELD, PA, March 1, 2022 – Senator Tim Kearney and state Rep. Gina H. Curry hosted a Black & Diverse Business Forum at Delaware County Community College that brought out over two dozen local entrepreneurs and small business owners looking to grow their businesses.
Held in the college’s STEM building, the presentation portion of the event kicked off just after 9:00 a.m., in the auditorium with a welcome from Anthony Twyman, Delaware County Community College Director of Government & Public Relations, followed by opening remarks from Senator Kearney and Rep. Curry.
Both elected officials, who represent some of the same areas in Delaware County, wanted to create an event during Black History Month that had a meaningful impact on the community.
“When people think about Black History Month, they often focus on recognizing the past accomplishments of notable African Americans,” said Senator Kearney. “I also believe you can celebrate Black history by supporting the great work black and diverse people are doing in local communities. This event gave entrepreneurs and small business owners the chance to feel supported by providing them with much-needed resources from experts and networking opportunities with reputable companies interested in contracting with black and diverse businesses.”
