This past weekend, ABEP and ARISE were out in the community at The Black Market—connecting with local businesses, meeting entrepreneurs, and, of course, enjoying some amazing food!
🍪 Allen Family Creations — that banana pudding cookie, chef's kiss!
🥤 Minne Tea — refreshing drinks that definitely hit the spot.
🍽️ High Society Eats — we had a chance to dine, connect, and enjoy some great food.
And these were just a few of the many businesses and entrepreneurs we had the opportunity to connect with throughout the day.
For us, showing up matters. Supporting local businesses matters. Building relationships matters.
ARISE CCU is Black-led, open to all, and invested in our community. We don't just talk about supporting the community—we want to be there, spend there, partner there, and grow there... together.
We put our money where our community is.
