Women Business Owners of Prince George's County

WBO-PGC Events & Information

SUPPORT BLACK BUSINESSES
​VIEW WBO-PGC'S LIST OF BUSINESSES
In a true, concerted effort to keep our money within our community, we're compiling a list of Black-Owned Businesses that serve the Prince George's County community and beyond.
  
A drastic change is  long overdue - It is time to divest in a system that does not serve us and invest within our community.  The brutality against Black Americans that continue to be exposed by a corrupt administration and a tumultuous history of systemic racism, genocide, criminalization and injustice in every sense of the word NEEDS to end. And to initiate that change, we can realize our power TOGETHER!
To add your business or another Black-owned business that serves the D.C., Maryland, Virginia community,
