Donald McEachinCongressman A. Donald McEachin (VA-04) commemorated Black History Month by hosting “Continuing Excellence: The Next Generation of Black Business,” a panel discussion focused on the promotion of future generations of black businesses in Virginia’s 4th Congressional District.

“As a former small business owner, I know first-hand that these establishments can create wealth, opportunity and good-paying jobs while building our communities,” said McEachin. “I was so pleased to have this group of successful, young and innovative black entrepreneurs share their experiences first-hand with community members including the students at Virginia Union University.”

This event featured The Urban League of Greater Richmond: Young Professionals and held at Virginia Union University.
