Project snapshot
The Rockaway Parkway Merchants Association is supporting local entrepreneurs in the Canarsie community. Their year-long project aims to provide essential resources and networking opportunities for small businesses, helping them recover and thrive after the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Monthly meetings, workshops, and in-person events to help entrepreneurs learn about marketing, commercial lease assistance, legal support, and financing options will be offered. Networking events, including speed networking and professional headshots, provide business owners with the chance to connect, share experiences, and collaborate. Through this project, these efforts will improve sales, operations, and visibility for local businesses, ultimately supporting the economic growth and vitality of Canarsie.
