We are a team of Executive Volunteers and we are working to launch our Foundations newest group of charities: 4 New EMPOWERSHIPS™ (Membership) entities.

Traditionally each membership org would require its own registration process, dues schedule in addition to the qualifiers for the group. In our case, each entity cross-supports the others by design — hence the title, Empowership™. So our registrations have been consolidated into a single process with Affiliates Classifications to support the Primary Membership Focus of each Empowership Entity.

Nothing worse than a closed door no one will open that shouldn’t be closed to begin with. But as an Exempt Small Business, we hit doors to business assets closed all the time. Gaining access, getting fair pricing, even B2B treatment is a full time job that also shouldn’t be unnecessary.

Our Empowership™ organizations are not just typical memberships with goodies attached to them. They are a path and movement to establishing self-sufficiency by own own hands, from our own resources.

Our expansion efforts unexpectedly morphed into a national network of small business development charities. Now we can help other Exempt Business Peers on a much larger scale than the few peers at a time we were previously limited to.


Pre-Qualify for Early Registration

In honor of the Foundation’s 10th Anniversary, we are doing things a bit differently. We’ve begun accepting Applications to Pre-Qualify for all 4 of our [new] Empowership Organizations. That means there is one process, early registration discounts for everyone, and classification as Primary Member or Affiliate, with some Applicants receiving a Complementary Membership for joining.

Benefits of membership mirrors this image — pun intended. You’ll connect to everything your exempt business needs because is already here and available. We’ve a national network of charities that serve and deploy and will go live soon we’ve completed populating with resources.

You have your own Federal Credit Union, market exchange, media studios, resource library, Fellowship Academy for exempt professional development, a think-tank with its own research institutes that will study & advocate change for the exempt small business, access to interns & fellows with exempt career interest, a host of gap-filing charitable programs, services, products, and a newly launched effort that will help get you donated building, property, land, or facility that your exempt business will own. And there’s our Supply Discount Network™.

Did I mention we’re forming Technology Hub? We’re convening a Tech Council and have been Reseller-Partners for Adobe, Acer, Stripe, Logitech, Tucows Domain Registrar, & Microsoft for a lil bit.

Did I mention we’re building a network of Pollination Partners – Vendors, Merchants, OEMS, Suppliers who register with us SPECIFICALLY to discount their offerings and do business with you. Registrations just launched for PPN!

The Economic Empowerment Foundation for Exempt Startups & Small Businesses (EEF-501c)™ MD Charity ID #38901, & parent 501c Business Incubator Council, LLC (501c-BizInc)™ became a 501c economic development enterprise, the unintended result of expanding to meet capacity one person could not do alone, hitting the same brick walls as its peers, but getting it done anyway — and to a great extent still doing it with little help.

Need a Micro Loan? HHF™ is a charitable program created by 501c-BizInc™ so EEF-501c™ can accept donations to use & with its own revenue primarily for Intern, Fellow, & Awardee Stipends, make Small $1 Loans available to 501c Startups, Entrepreneurs & Young Exempt Small-Biz who can’t get loans or [fair] lending help any where else, and fill in other needs as they materialize.

HHF™ Funds are spread across the Incubators growing network of business & economic development charities that deliver startup & small biz programs, products, services including our new fleet of Empowership™ orgs.

Click here if you’d like to help 501c Startups & Small Businesses, Thank U in Advance if you do. HHFs website goes live soon!

ROKFinancial™ is our large dollar lending Partner, they’re ready & waiting to help you find the right loan product for your exempt business!

We recently changed our biz name, so you may still see some of our old info until all the new info catches up.

That’s normal given tech environments do not update at the same pace, and also because we don’t have to time to sit and wait.


Pre-Qualification is a limited time offer. At this time the duration aligns with our Leadership search for both the Founders Association and its National Chamber. Once ATESE and NCTSB each have an Executive Director, those new organizations will formally launch and Pre-Qualifications Applications will no longer be accepted, Early Registration Discounts will also come to an end or have already ended, and the more traditional Registration Process will go into effect.

Meantime our Application to Pre-Qualify to receive an early registration discounts is under way. The Pre-Qual package is available below to download and contains complete information on criteria, discounts, and required materials under the Cover Letter of Invitation.

We’re excited to finally get this going. Can’t wait to meet you! Click Empowership Application Package from here so you can get started!

Thanks so much for your patience, we look forward to helping.
