The Greenwood Beat – WFPG Crowdfunding Equipment Fundraiser

The crowdfunding Equipment Fundraiser is off to a slow start but Angela K. Chambers and Francetta L. Mays are hopeful to meet their goal. Angela says, “I believe that as people hear of our story and When they realize that in 2023 we made history by creating the first black, female-owned radio station they will support us. In general, women have a more challenging fete to obtain and even having access to capital. But also when we are in 2023 and ‘blacks’ are still making history by being the first of anything tells me to remain hopefully.”

Echoing and adding to Angela’s sentiment, Francetta says, “As people hear our passion and understand what we are striving for I believe the support will come. The more people even just sharing the story helps to reach the people who are passionate about changing the world we live in today for the better.”

The Greenwood Beat – WFPG is “A Voice for Greenwood.”  Angela says, “And WFPG gives all of us the opportunity to discover the story and build on the resilience of Greenwood while recreating Black Wall Street and a better mankind. It’s not necessary to continue to pour gasoline on the fire of 1921 as Francetta always says.”

Consider making a donation to The Greenwood Beat – WFPG GoFundMe crowdfunding Equipment Fundraiser.  Any size donation is welcome. According to Franetta L. Mays, also an Associate Pastor at the Historic Vernon AME Church (Vernon), “In the Book of Redemption located in Vernon, the people were able to rebuild in one year’s time with donations as small as $0.10.” Share the link with your family, friends and networks.

Tulsa, Oklahoma – In collaboration with TCLiving Marketing and the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce, the Greenwood Beat has launched the initiative of the Original Black Wall Street Marketplace. Starting June 24th, the marketplace will support and promote local businesses by connecting them with the community. The marketplace will commence every Saturday from 9 AM-1 PM in the Greenwood Courtyard.

The Black Wall Street Marketplace is an initiative to support local entrepreneurs and help them gain more exposure. The marketplace will commence on Saturday, 24 June from 9:00 AM-1:00 PM CST in the Greenwood Courtyard. Then it will recur every Saturday at the same time throughout the summer months.

The purpose of this collaboration between the Greenwood Beat, TCliving Marketing, and GCC is to assist small businesses in increasing their sales. They can reserve a booth and sell products to customers visiting the venue.

To support the cause, the Greenwood Beat radio station will heavily promote the event during its radio programming. The organizers will further promote the event through social media ads, radio ads, TV ads, flyers, and more. This will ensure registered businesses can enjoy better visibility and attract more potential customers to the marketplace.

Interested vendors can reserve their booths by getting registered online at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c084ca9a82dabf8c52-tobws#/. The first 10 entries will get a special offer to book their spot for only $25.

Event organizers aim to make the marketplace the center of attention and add value to sellers as well as buyers. The Original Black Wall Street Marketplace will bridge the gap between small businesses and the community.
