Growth Partners Arizona (GPAz) is thrilled to announce that we have been awarded a $500,000 grant from Vanguard. This award will bolster our mission to bridge the racial wealth gap. These funds will be instrumental in our ongoing initiatives to foster economic empowerment for underserved communities and small business owners. In the upcoming months, we will unveil detailed plans on how we will utilize this investment to broaden the reach of capital, financial education, and vital resources for small businesses in the Phoenix metro area.

Our work at GPAz is deeply rooted in the voices of the communities we serve. We listen intently to their unique needs and respond with purpose. This approach is the cornerstone of our efforts to build a sustainable foundation for growth and transformation through partnerships and collaborative initiatives.
