Black excellence is showing up and showing out all through Killeen, Texas. I get so excited about this time of year because the Innovation Black Chamber of Commerce hosts the Black Business Awards. This event is so important for all entrepreneurs and business owners of color in our area, and I love to see people come out to support and be a part of something so inspiring.

In the past, we haven't really seen much appreciation or recognition for black owned businesses in Central Texas. This event is all about celebrating people of color whose success in business and community service has inspired and encouraged more entrepreneurs to enrich our local culture and economy.
