A project has been launched by Pitbull, a famous Latino artist, in partnership with the leader of an organization and another group to support Latino-owned businesses to get back on their feet after a major hit from the coronavirus pandemic. 

The Partnership

An article reported that the head and founder of Global Entrepreneurship Network Jeff Hoffman and Hello Alice had collaborated with Pitbull for a project to help Latino-owned businesses to survive the pandemic and continue to pay their employees. 

Additionally, the parties involved in the project will be providing approximately $100,000 to the Hispanic owners of small businesses deserving of such grants. 

According to the article, Hoffman learned that some Latino-owned businesses got rejected for loans and that some workers cannot take home their work such as the servers of restaurants. It means that some businesses owned by the Latino community in the country may need the extra boost for it not to stop operations and prevent leaving countless workers unemployed. 

It means that the help granted to these small business owners will not only help the Latino community but also other communities as its workers will not be left unemployed if the business they work for can survive the pandemic.
