Early success for a small business can be difficult but two OC nonprofits are providing a lifeline, letting some small business owners dream big.
CIELO aims to help people without access to more conventional business startup pathways and their help doesn't stop at micro grants of $1,000 to $5,000.
"We essentially help to acknowledge people for who they are and that is incredible, resilient, resourceful, intuitive individuals who have the power to change their lives and the lives of their community members and their family members if only provided the right resources and tools and coaches," said CIELO Executive Director and Co-Founder Iosefa Alofaituli.
"We host the website that all the organizations are fundraising on, we also provide the marketing toolkits and training to help all the organizations be successful and they're building a brand around what they're doing with workforce development," said Carol Ferguson with the Orange County Community Foundation.
With guidance and $5,000 to cover startup costs, Torres can use her Mexican traditions to make her American Dream a reality.
