“Springing into Action”
Reflecting on my journey a decade ago, when I was a budding entrepreneur building my food business, I discovered that through the years, my most valuable and lucrative experiences stemmed from my relationships with people who were very different from me. I realized the immense value in understanding different perspectives and the importance of making time to unearth shared values rather than relying solely on preconceived notions of judgment. This realization enlightened me and opened my mind and world to new possibilities.
WEBB Squared serves as a catalyst for connection and collaboration. By connecting people across racial, ethnic, and class divides, we foster diverse networks of people and organizations who share values. This helps us create fertile ground for a new culture to blossom in our business communities.
A business culture that is more than transactional because these partnerships aren’t just about the exchange of resources. WEBB is incubating a culture that prioritizes sharing experiences, deepening understanding, and building relationships that lead to transformation.

Through our Chatham Co. Innovation Lab, WEBB entrepreneurs can work with individuals who provide guidance and serve as champions, offering insights drawn from their journeys. This ecosystem of support is not just about collaboration and connection but also about personal growth, empowerment, and the forging of transformative relationships, motivating and encouraging our entrepreneurs.
As we continue on this journey of growth and expansion to build WEBB Squared, we invite you to join hands with us. Your support is not just an investment in our hub and coaching program – it is an investment in the collective success of a vibrant business community. Together, we can nurture talent, foster innovation, and create opportunities that empower minority entrepreneurs to reach their full potential. Join us because it truly takes all of us to cultivate a future where every voice is heard and every dream is within reach.

Spring Into Action! Will You Join Us?

We are kicking off our “Spring Into Action Fundraising Campaign” to raise $20,000 to support WEBB’s coaching program for entrepreneurs.
There are many motivating factors for a person to seek out a path of entrepreneurship. Maybe one needs to get out of the rat race away from that 9 to 5 job that is not emotionally or spiritually fulfilling. Maybe one needs additional income to support their lifestyle and family. Maybe one has a hobby that produces a product and they have to share that product with everyone they know.
Maybe one simply just has that BIG idea and wants to use their creativity to make it happen and bring it into the world.
Each person who comes to WEBB Squared is taking a leap of faith to take that BIG idea or vision and turn it into a tangible endeavor or business. Many come to us, share their BIG vision and say “where do I start?” These entrepreneurs are taking a leap of faith when they sit down and talk with the coaches at WEBB.
We can’t do it without your support. Your gift will help us continue providing much needed coaching services to the entrepreneurs we serve. Will you take that leap of faith and support and entrepreneur?
With gratitude to our supporters – we’ve reached 20% of our overall goal!
