“I think one of the first things is creating more funding and creating more ways that businesses are staying in P.E.I.”
The organization announced its P.E.I. expansion at the Black Cultural Society of P.E.I.’s Black History Month gala at the start of February.
Tamara Steele, executive director of the Black Cultural Society, says Familusi will be coming to P.E.I. three days each month. In anticipation of this, BBI is releasing a video series that helps explain what it’s all about, Steele said in a Feb. 7 SaltWire Network interview. BBI is creating the videos with information Steele gathered from the local Black community, she said.
“ will give them some basic information that they’ll be able to access through our website and website – basic startup information, tax workshops, that sort of thing.”While the service is free for now, the Black Cultural Society is thinking about making its Black Business Directory a paid membership service. If it does, the business initiative may become a feature of the directory, Steele said.Logan MacLean is a diversity reporter with the SaltWire Network in Prince Edward Island.
