At the Greater Phoenix Equality Chamber of Commerce, we're passionate about empowering and educating our community. This year, we're raising funds at our highly anticipated Festival of Trees event to support essential educational programs, including our Business Boot Camp, Lunch n Learns, and Drag Performer Coalition. These initiatives provide critical resources and knowledge to entrepreneurs, small businesses, and performers in the LGBTQ+ community, fostering growth, sustainability, and success.
Our Business Boot Camp equips aspiring business owners with the skills and strategies needed to thrive in a competitive marketplace. Lunch n Learns offer valuable networking opportunities and industry insights, helping professionals sharpen their expertise. Meanwhile, the Drag Performer Coalition supports local artists by providing business education, resources, and advocacy, helping them navigate the challenges of the entertainment industry.
By contributing to the Festival of Trees, you're directly investing in the future of these programs. Your support ensures that our community members have access to the tools they need to succeed, regardless of their background or experience. Together, we can continue to build a stronger, more inclusive business environment in Greater Phoenix.
