FOUNDER'S MESSAGE
FOUNDER'S MESSAGE
After 15 years at the NAACP National Headquarters, I resigned as the NAACP Events Manager to launch Clea Event Productions in November 2016. While at the NAACP it was common to use Black vendors when planning events across the country or conducting day-to-day business. It was something that I took for granted and assumed to be standard practice outside the association.
However, as an entrepreneur my clients' needs range in the scoop. Oftentimes, many of the vendors that I've used for decades at the NAACP were outside of my clients’ budgets but I knew I had to find solutions that centered on recycling the Black dollar.
Since 2017, I've tried to empower other people to launch this concept and to no avail, it always seemed to fall on deaf ears. However, I now know that God’s vision for Recycle The Black Dollar is a project that calls for my own leadership and now I'm walking in it with the support of the team and our ambassadors.
