Together we can help save small businesses.
Welcome, Team Valley
Use your professional expertise to help save small businesses
We invite you to join this initiative to support businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. This effort will especially serve resource-scarce communities of color that have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic. While medical professionals are on the front line saving lives, we are asking business professionals to join together to save our small businesses.
All work is done remotely by phone and video conferencing.
It's easy to get involved and make a difference.
We can use whatever time you have available.
Sign up for our 2-hour events or meet with business owners at your schedule.
Complete the sign up form and select your onboarding date.
Attend a 20-min onboarding call with an IFEL Team Member.

We need expertise in these areas:
Finances, Marketing, Competitive Analysis, HR, Operations, Legal, and more!
Join the fight to save our small business community
and stimulate our economy using your professional skills.
