Small Business Majority and Servicos de la Raza, in conjunction with partners Mi Casa Resource Center, Accion Colorado, Community Enterprise Development Services, and Rocky Mountain MicroFinance Institute, invite you to join us for an interactive workshop about access to capital for small businesses.

Topics of discussion include:

• An overview of alternative lending options including microloans, SBA's loan guarantee program and reputable online lenders
• 5 C’s of credit
• Key questions to consider when seeking funding
• Tips to help determine the best option for your small business
