Testimonies
Mardelia Campbell
Owner, Venus Cuerpo Escultural
Mi Gente has been a true ally in the growth of Venus Cuerpo Escultural. Thanks to their guidance and support through the Mi Gente Loan Fund, I was able to expand my business and invest in new equipment to offer better services to my clients. I’m deeply grateful to Mi Gente for believing in my vision and for being a constant source of empowerment for Hispanic entrepreneurs like me. They truly care about helping us grow and reach our goals every step of the way.
Sel Contreras
Owner Operator
The brothers masonry company.
Mi Gente is a genuine organization that’s making a meaningful impact in our community. Our company reached a point where we needed a front desk manager but weren’t sure we had the funds for it. Thanks to Mi Gente and their Loan Fund program, we were able to move forward and accelerate our growth. Their workshops and programs have greatly enriched our team’s knowledge and skills, and we’re beyond grateful for their continued commitment to our success.
Martha Hernandez & Mariana Moran Prokea Studio
Mi Gente played a key role in the birth of Prokea Studio. Thanks to the financing that each of us received (Martha through H-Pro Design and Mariana through Kea Estudio) and to the invaluable guidance of the entire team, we realized that by combining our strengths we could go even further. Through the Marketing for Your Business workshop organized by Mi Gente, we connected with new clients and expanded our impact. The path is always stronger when built in collaboration.
