Black Female-Owned Businesses to Support Now and Always
#BlogHer is committed to uplifting and amplifying the diverse voices of entrepreneurs and businesswomen who provide meaningful contributions to our community and beyond. Whether you are a mighty team of one or hundreds, a participant from #ThePitch, a veteran in the business space, or just here to learn — we exist to highlight your efforts and make sure your company has a platform to be seen. This week, we called upon the Black female members of our #BlogHer Creators Facebook group to offer a look into their work.
These women own online shops, work tirelessly to have their books and podcasts distributed, assist women on their wellness journeys, help brands market creatively, and provide products and services that make our jobs as content creators easier. They deserve your support. Purchase their products. Take advantage of their services. Comment and share their latest social media posts. There are so many ways to show you care. We hope you will aid us in our fight for equality, and make sure these ladies and their work don’t go unnoticed.
