This grant will fund the creation of webinars, videos, white papers, and other educational business content and resources to support both current and aspiring founders.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with the Global Atlantic Foundation,” said SCORE Foundation President Liz Sara. “This grant will go a long way in enabling SCORE to create very specialized programs and tailored information specifically for assisting these underserved founders to overcome the unique challenges they face. We are so grateful for this support and look forward to working together to drive even more successful small businesses owned by diverse founders.”

The Global Atlantic Foundation, a donor-advised fund, was established in 2022 with a $10 million charitable commitment from Global Atlantic.

“This grant to the SCORE Foundation underscores our commitment to supporting and increasing the ability of diverse entrepreneurs to make an impact on our economy by starting and operating companies that serve communities everywhere,” said Shellie Peters, head of charitable giving at Global Atlantic.
