You started a business because you know your craft, your service, your customers or your industry.

But do you know your numbers?

Greater Englewood Chamber's Basic Financials for Business is a practical 4-part course designed to help business owners better understand the financial side of running a business.

We'll break down:
đź’° Profit & Loss Statements
📦 Inventory & Cost of Goods
đź“Š Operational Expenses
đź‘Ą Cost of Labor

No finance degree required.

Just bring your business, your questions and a willingness to understand your numbers differently.

Because when you know your numbers, you can make smarter moves.

Behind every strong program is a team of people committed to making it happen. đź’š

Today, we’re showing appreciation for the Englewood Shared Renewables leadership team, Kedrik Lacy - Program Lead, Jordan Bester, Program Director, and Kamari Offord - Porgram Lead, and the vision, planning, partnership, and dedication they continue to bring to this work.

From creating opportunities for hands-on learning to connecting community members with pathways into clean energy and emerging industries, this team is helping turn possibility into progress.

The work you see in the classroom starts long before participants walk through the door. It takes leadership. It takes collaboration. It takes people who believe that Englewood should have a place in the industries shaping our future.

To the ESR leadership team, thank you for your commitment to the program, the participants, and the community. Your work matters, and we appreciate everything you do to keep the vision moving forward. ⚡🌱
