Galaxy of Stars Helps Fund Entrepreneurial Success
AUSTIN,
Texas, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Galaxy of
Stars is thrilled to continue its support for diversity and
innovation in the business world. Following the announcement of
their latest grant recipient planned for next week, Galaxy has
announced the launch of a new grant the following day, July 1. The goal of this $4,250 grant opportunity is to support women and
minority entrepreneurs in their business endeavors. This initiative
reinforces Galaxy's commitment to the diverse business community,
ensuring there is always an active grant opportunity available for
aspiring entrepreneurs and small business owners.
For over four years, the Galaxy Grant program has been a leading
supporter of underrepresented entrepreneurs. Prominent
organizations such as CNN, Shopify, and the U.S. Chamber
of Commerce and others have featured the Galaxy Grants program,
highlighting the vital support it offers.
Grant applicants can enter free of charge
at www.galaxyofstars.org and it only takes 30 seconds to
complete the application. The simplification of this process
provides relief to applicants who are often overburdened and have
limited free time, as many grant applications typically require
extensive and time-consuming submissions.
Galaxy of Stars is a project of Hidden Star, a well-established
non-profit 501(c)(3) with an eight-year track record of
providing financial support and other resources to uplift women and
minority-owned businesses. Building on this success, Galaxy of
Stars has grown to include more than 540,000 members
nationwide.
In addition to the Galaxy Grants program, the
website www.galaxyofstars.org is a premier resource
and education platform for women and minority entrepreneurs. Galaxy
of Stars offers a comprehensive suite of resources, including
extensive databases of grants, investor opportunities such as
venture capital firms and angel investors, as well as recommended
banks and private lenders for loans. Furthermore, Galaxy helps
businesses find specific sales and contracting opportunities
specifically for entities like theirs, providing a significant
boost as they venture into the business world.
Galaxy of Stars also offers a vibrant and expanding Community
Forum where women and minority entrepreneurs can network and
connect with peers who share similar business experiences. This
unique platform provides a widespread support system where members
can seek advice, find solutions, and engage in networking to
enhance their business and build a stronger community.
Also available on www.galaxyofstars.org is a
remarkable Master Class specifically designed for women and
minority entrepreneurs. This course is tailored to assist them in
starting and growing their businesses, while also mitigating
risks. At a time in this country of unprecedented disparities
in wealth, ownership, and economic opportunity, this course
provides a clear, proven roadmap. Led by two world-renowned experts
and successful business owners, the Master Class is an invaluable
resource for those looking to alter their journey and shape their
future.
"Business success is the foundation of this course and the
information included is crucial in today's climate," says Dr.
John Sibley Butler, a course co-instructor.
Butler, a world-renowned expert and author on minority
entrepreneurship and wealth creation in the minority business
community, serves as Chairman Emeritus at the University of Texas at Austin McCombs Business
School. Joining him as co-instructor is Mike Dewey, the visionary founder of Hidden
Star, a four-time entrepreneur, and a widely published business
author. Drawing from their vast and relevant experience, this
course provides entrepreneurs with step-by-step instructions on how
to build a successful and sustainable business.
"Since the beginning of Hidden Star" said Dewey, "we have helped
thousands of new, aspiring, and experienced entrepreneurs and we
know exactly what they need to succeed. We have packed it all into
this class and the Galaxy platform. People taking this class can go
from disadvantaged to highly advantaged in about five hours. It
really can change the game and change their lives."
Dallas entrepreneur
Isaac Williams, who worked with
Hidden Star when starting his staffing company, shared his
experience: "Starting my own company has changed my life and I
couldn't have done it without Hidden Star and the information in
this Master Class. I hope it changes everyone's life like it
changed mine," says Williams.
"The mission of Galaxy of Stars is very simple: America needs
more successful minority and women owned businesses and we are
proud to help," says Dewey. "By offering the most comprehensive
platform and resources of all kinds, and addressing the issues
these entrepreneurs face, Galaxy can dramatically improve their
odds of succeeding and changing their future."
