The Markaaz Community Development Initiative

Differentiate yourself from your competitors by sponsoring a small business’s membership on Markaaz. Sometimes, that’s all it takes.  

We’re inviting you to join our Community Development Initiative (CDI), a pledge that we make to provide 100,000 businesses with free access to Markaaz for a year. Making resources like the all-in-one Dashboard and pre-verified Directory available to every small business drives equity and equal opportunity.  

We know that businesses with the right tools, resources, and knowledge are three times as likely to succeed. And we also know that when we equip minority business owners with such resources that the gratitude and impact is long-lasting. We are business owners ourselves. We know that sometimes all it takes is for someone to believe in you, for someone to see you. Sponsoring a business shows them that you care and that they matter.
