Amplifying economic wellness and wealth for Black Canadians.
To be the catalyst for Black generational wealth creation, FACE has launched its Black Entrepreneurship Loan Fund among other services for all Canadians of African descent to see a better tomorrow.
About FACE
FACE is a national and bilingual Black-led nonprofit organization focused on providing resources and information to the Black community across Canada with the aim of accelerating wealth creation for Canadians of African descent.
In partnership with the Government of Canada, FACE created a Black Entrepreneurship Loan Fund to help Black business owners with access to capital investments, working capital, or additional business resources for expansion. FACE has several other major partners that help further the mission of providing Black Canadians with the necessary resources, knowledge, and confidence to not only operate successfully as Black entrepreneurs but to thrive as a community across the nation.
