Dear Friends~ 
 
This month, we have a host of education opportunities to share with you, two accomplishments to celebrate with you, and several funding programs to bring to your attention.
 
We are happy to share resources for the following opportunities:
 
Learn how to use Google to promote your business online, 
 
Network with entrepreneurs, gain valuable insights from industry experts, and discover new ways to grow your business or business idea.
 
Explore how to turn your business idea into a reality.
 
Gain an understanding of how to upskill your senior workforce.
 
Our team is celebrating two accomplishments this month. First, we were honored to receive the 2023 Spirit of Alamosa Award from the Chamber of Commerce, 
and second, I am excited to contribute my time and knowledge in my new role on the First Southwest Bank Board of Directors.
 
If you or someone you know is seeking funding for their business, we have several programs available. Please visit our website to explore these programs:
 
  • Innovate Onwards/Climber/CO Start Up Loan Fund

Please reach out to me at azarelmc@fswcf.org if you have questions about any of our loans, grants or education programs. Thanks for reading and sharing our work.
