ALIST Community Events

ALIST Community Events

As an extension of our mission to serve the BIPOC community, ALIST began organizing community events in February 2022 in partnership with women entrepreneurs to benefit women entrepreneurs in Portland. This work launched the WSW Program and WSW Meet Ups . With 400+ entrepreneurs in Portland, ALIST has distributed more than 55K across 42 women of color owned businesses (46 total) in less than 2 years. This was activated by hosting 15 different Meet Up experiences, at 15 different women-owned locations, and selling 772 tickets to women founders. In 2024, we’re utilizing this incredible foundation to do even more in our communities.
