The Center for Community Transformation, Leadership Foundation of Fresno, believes that enterprise can be the spark for widespread social change for their city and county.
On June 16th, 2022 they held their ninth annual SparkTank event, a pitch fest where local microbusiness and social entrepreneurs competed to receive $25,000 in start-up capital. This year over 200 individuals were in attendance!
Since 2012, the Center for Community Transformation, has developed a unique training and coaching process for local entrepreneurs that has successfully launched more than 50 social enterprises and 70 microbusinesses.
Through their deep commitments to serving the overlooked and underserved throughout the San Joaquin Valley, the Center for Community Transformation is leveraging the power of private enterprise and the creativity of local entrepreneurs to make their city, county, and region a more vibrant and thriving place.
It's a privilege to work with people so eager to learn how to engage their communities in transformative ways.
