Local Black businesses are looking for a new organization to gain ground financially.

The Metro Detroit Black Business Alliance is kicking off Juneteenth with a business crawl unlike any other.

The newly launched Metro Detroit Black Business Alliance (MDBBA) is excited to celebrate Juneteenth and its first 100 days of impact throughout the month of June.

DETROIT – Black-owned businesses often face unique challenges getting off the ground. “We’re here to change the game for Black entrepreneurs,” President and CEO of Metro Detroit Black Business Alliance Charity Dean said. It’s a partnership between a group of Black business owners and the Detroit NAACP. Dean said because of that money they can provide programming and support services for Black businesses around Metro Detroit. But above all, we will do everything in our power to ensure that Black businesses thrive,” Dean said.
