One Buncombe: funding for entrepreneurs of color 
Jun 20 all-day
Online
Based on need and recent events, One Buncombe has opened up a second round of funding for entrepreneurs of color in Western North Carolina. Loans up to $10,000 are available, depending on a business’s current revenue. Loans will not given based on credit score, and applicants are not required to provide a Social Security Number.

Eligibility Requirements:

  • Business must be located in Buncombe County.
  • Self-employed individuals are encouraged to apply
  • Must have been in business before January 1, 2020.

Learn more about the application process on the One Buncombe website.

Applications are open through June 30th. This loan is only available for entrepreneurs of color. 

Raffle: Trip to London or Cash Asheville Community Theatre
Jun 20 – Jun 19 all-day
Asheville Community Theatre

 

Tickets on sale through June 28, 2020

We know how completely odd it seems to be raffling off a trip to London right now. We’re barely leaving our homes for any reason, so jetting off around the world seems flat out bonkers! We’re hopeful that international travel and fun vacations will happen again in the future – and that’s why we extended and amended the raffle prize! If you win, you can choose the trip to London (and you have 18 months to book your travel) OR you can choose to take the cash value of the trip instead ($10,000).

Our raffles have been important fundraisers for ACT over the years, and this one is no different. ACT has lost 85% of our income as an organization, so this raffle is one of the few ways we can continue to bring a little money in the door.

Buying a raffle ticket is a great way to support ACT right now – and it just might be you who gets some really great news from us!

Recycling Resilience Webinar
Jun 24 @ 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm
Online

Join us for the second webinar in our FREE Recycling Resilience series and get the resources you need to adapt and thrive.  While questions and uncertainty are swirling about what a new recycling “normal” will look like, communities are committed to recycling.  Programs across the Carolinas are showing creativity and resiliency. Many are achieving a delicate balance to keep employees safe while maintaining core services. Others are making sure residents continue to receive the recycling services they value despite tight budgets at the local level. NC DEACS and SC DHEC will provide a bird’s eye view of what’s happening in the two states and outline strategies that are keeping programs evolving.  This event is free but registration is required.  Please register now and we look forward to speaking with you!
