This initial group of mentors brings a broad range of skill sets and experience in industries such as restaurants and cafes, hospitality, arts and entertainment, business leadership and the non-profit sector.

Small businesses who apply don’t have to receive a loan to take advantage of Survive & Thrive COS resources and will have opportunities to access support through offerings such as webinars. As businesses continue to receive Survive & Thrive funding, the program will need more mentors from our business community.
