Description

Agape Services Staffing/Business & Community Development LLC, is a Minority Women Owned for-profit business, founded in 2001, with the idea to empower Black and Brown professionals in corporate America. In the late 1900’s I noted a low visibility and disproportion oversight of Black and Brown professionals in corporate and executive roles, which included myself. A high level of excellent skills was being dismissed based on one’s skin melatonin. As an African American, I personally experienced being overlooked and bypassed, as a prayerful result, I launched my Staffing Service with little know how and zero capital. I literally worked 45 days with zero compensation, awaiting payment from my clients, based on their payment schedule. Once I educated myself on the business side, I began soliciting and convincing companies to hire my Talent. Once the employees showed up for a temporary assignment, this was the opportunity to have companies experience the dedication and skills that minority held. Forasmuch, the temporary assignments were able to dispel myths held concerning minority’s work ethic and hire minority staff. Later in years, I expanded to educate, train, empower and prepare Black and Brown Minorites to transition their hobbies and/or dreams into Registered, Licensed, Certified Businesses according to one’s entity, on a shoe-string budget. Today, I also focus on the community, we, go to where the people are, to engage in conversation with locals, asking questions of neighborhood service needs, connecting youths who are homeless or hopeless with local thriving mentors to help build communities.
