Dear State Forty Eight Foundation Community,
As the new Executive Director of the State Forty Eight Foundation, I am thrilled to express my heartfelt gratitude for the remarkable support that defined 2023. This year, we celebrated the launch of our exclusive specialty license plate and awarded $50,000 in grant funding to Arizona small businesses — a testament to the dedication and hard work of our Board of Directors and staff.
However, in the vibrant landscape of Arizona entrepreneurship, your unwavering support has been the driving force behind our success. Entrepreneurship’s impact reaches well beyond business, shaping the identity of our communities by fostering innovation, diversity, and resilience.
Throughout 2023, we’ve had the privilege of supporting numerous small business owners who embody the spirit of Arizona. These entrepreneurs contribute not only to our economy but also to the unique tapestry of our local culture.
Looking ahead to the rest of 2024, I am excited about the opportunities that lie before us. Together, we will continue to amplify our impact, empowering even more entrepreneurs and small businesses to thrive. Your commitment is the foundation of our success, and I am honored to lead this incredible organization into a future filled with growth, collaboration, and shared prosperity.
With Gratitude,
