Amos O. Webster, Jr. Power of Entrepreneurship Fund 2023

Honoring the Entrepreneurial Spirit of Amos O. Webster, Jr.

Amos O. Webster, Jr. was an astute businessman who modeled integrity and forged opportunities in his myriad of business endeavors. To honor his legacy and his belief in paying it forward a fund has been established in his name.

This annual fund will help champion the entrepreneurial endeavors of a Tennessee State University alumni who is a budding entrepreneur and support their efforts with a non-dilutive grant.

The second grant will be awarded in September 2024.

This fundraiser has ended. Thanks to everyone who donated!

No entrepreneur can succeed without a strong network of support. But because of the ways access and opportunity have traditionally been distributed, social entrepreneurs and diverse founders are less likely to know people from top colleges and companies than their counterparts. This means they have less robust networks to draw on for advice, customers, funding, and professional growth. We call this the Relationship Gap. Goodie Nation exists to eliminate the relationship gap that stands in the way of success for too many promising entrepreneurs, especially those who are people of color, women, or aren’t located in coastal financial centers. By making sure that every entrepreneur, no matter their background or location, can access the relationships they need to thrive, we are building a more sustainable and prosperous future for all.
