PROGRAM LAUNCHED TO HELP BLACKS START A BUSINESS
Vero Beach, FL - With Black unemployment at about 25 percent and decent paying jobs scarce, one way to get income is to start a business.
It takes less money than one would think. Robb Roy Taylor, Ph.D., has written a book titled SEVENTY BUSINESSES YOU CAN START WITH A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS -- OR LESS! (1st Books, Bloomington, IN. 210 p. $14.95) He wants to give every Black church three or four copies of this book to lend to parishioners who are unemployed, married with children to support. More important, he wants to lend the money needed to start the selected business -- $300 to $900.
To get the needed money, Blackbiz Start-Up Fund is being established and Blacks now making millions in sports and entertainment, etc. are being asked to contribute $5,000 to $100,000 and more to help make these no-interest loans to Blacks all over the U.S. who want to go into business. The donations will be tax-deductible and may lower the income tax rate for donors, so the donations could cost nothing.
This is a way for unemployed Blacks to move away from minimum wage, menial jobs and to win self-respect and high standing in their community. In addition to the small loan, those going into business will get advice and counsel from various Black sources to help them make a success of their business.
The first step in the program is to get the cooperation of pastors of Black churches who will hand out the applications for the loans to family-heads who have the capability for making a success of the business they choose -- which should be one they will enjoy being in.
Let your pastor know about this program. Meanwhile, the Blackbiz Start-Up Fund is going to be contacting successful Blacks urging them to support this self-help (non-governmental) program.
Those interested can contact Robb Roy Taylor by mail at 762 South U.S. One, Vero Beach, FL 32962 or by email at RobbRoyTaylor@cs.com
