Beachwood City of The $500 million, six-year program, funded by the Goldman Sachs Foundation, aims to provide small businesses with access to comprehensive business education, business support services and financial capital. Beachwood and the Greater Cleveland area is one of just 12 metropolitan centers across the United States where the program is being offered. With the right mix of support, training and education, small businesses can grow their companies and their revenue while creating new jobs. To date, over 1,300 small business owners throughout the U.S. have completed and graduated from the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program. “Based on their very positive track record and first-hand accounts from Beachwood businesses that have graduated from the program, I am an enthusiastic supporter of the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program,” said Mayor Merle S. Gorden. “I encourage our Beachwoodbased small businesses to give strong consideration to applying for this free program and pursuing this worthwhile educational and entrepreneurial opportunity. The only investment required is your time.” eliGiBiliTY ReQUiReMenTs aRe: • • • • Business in the annual revenue range of $150,000 to $4 million with growth potential Minimum of four full-time employees Must have been in business a minimum of two years Applicant must be owner or co-owner TUESDAYS AUGUST 5 • The King Bees R&B Classics, Blues, Jazz to Pop Music AUGUST 12 • Red Light Roxy Swing, Boogie-Woogie & Old-School R&B SALUTE TO OUR 50 YEAR RESIDENTS Time Canvas: Dancing Through the Ages • AUGUST 7 Violin, Guitar, Cello & Bass Rhymes, Lullabies & Letters, Oh My! • AUGUST 14 Interactive Children’s Songs THURSDAYS BEACHWOOD COMMUNITY CENTER 6:30 - 8:00 P.M.
