Prince William Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on Aug. 2
NVBCC is hosting a ‘One Step Forward Walk/Run Challenge’ for the month of August. August is Black Business Month. In an effort to raise awareness of the chamber , celebrate some big wins for the NoVA Region and do something fun in all of our communities, this Virtual Walk/Run Challenge is designed for everyone. Whether you are an avid runner , walk as a hobby or walking is part of your normal regimen, there is a level of participation for the community at large. There are 3 accomplishments we want to celebrate as a community at large:
- The amount of funding coming into the Region through the American Rescue Plan for all communities.
- The number of Vaccinations in Virginia.
- The number of Black owned businesses in NoVA.
Please see the website for detailed race information and facts.
