This Juneteenth, we want to take a moment to talk about LAUNCH’s origins. LAUNCH was formed to meet the growing need for diversity in the Entrepreneurial landscape. Despite making up over a third of the population in the Chattanooga area, African Americans own less than 2.2% of businesses. In order to close the gap in wealth between minority populations, giving African American entrepreneurs the tools they need to succeed is crucial. We have come a long way and we have a long way to go, but we’re excited to do the work and we look forward to seeing that percentage of business ownership climb! #entrepreneurship #juneteenth #smallbusiness

When we connect with new friends like Marlon Hyde who not only believe in our mission but creatively bring it to life through storytelling, it’s truly special. Thank you to our friends at WABE for this powerful feature spotlighting the work of RICE and featuring RICE Stakeholder, LaRayia Gaston, owner of LaRayia’s Bodega. LaRayia's journey exemplifies resilience, vision, and the profound impact one entrepreneur can make on a community. We're honored to support entrepreneurs like LaRayia who are breaking barriers and leading change. At RICE, our mission goes beyond helping businesses grow—we empower Black entrepreneurs to reimagine what’s possible, providing them with uncommon access to mentorship, resources, and the dedicated space they need to thrive in Atlanta and beyond. LaRayia’s Bodega is more than a business; it’s a movement to bring healthy, affordable food options to underserved communities. Her commitment to creating a healthier lifestyle for those who need it most is a true reflection of RICE’s core values—supporting businesses that create real change and fostering an ecosystem where Black entrepreneurs can flourish. Since our founding, RICE has supported nearly 500 entrepreneurs, helping them expand their businesses, create jobs, and contribute significantly to the local economy. We are proud to be a part of Atlanta’s transformation into a thriving hub for Black-owned businesses and innovation. “In Atlanta, 96% of Black businesses have only one employee. At the Russell Center, over 70% of our businesses have employees,” said Jay Bailey, President and CEO of RICE. This is the kind of impact we’re striving for—creating a future where equity in entrepreneurship is not just a vision but a reality. We invite you to dive deeper into LaRayia and other RICE Stakeholders' inspiring stories featured by WABE.
