November 22, 2021

Courtney ChipolThe West Central Indiana Small Business Development Center (SBDC), hosted at Indiana State University's Scott College of Business, has received a $1 million grant from the U.S. Small Business Administration's Community Navigator Pilot Program.

The grant will support the creation of the International Outreach Network (ION) to strengthen outreach services to underserved businesses in a seven-county service area in order to ensure that SBA resources are accessible to entrepreneurs.

It will allow for the hiring of business advisors and outreach representatives to support businesses impacted by COVID-19 and underserved areas including rural, LBGTQIA+, veteran and Black-owned businesses. It will also enable West Central Indiana SBDC and its partners to bring additional current COVID-19 and basic business resources to these businesses.

"We saw with the pandemic that there were business owners who did not know about the programs and funding available to them," said Program Director Courtney Richey-Chipol. "Funding from this grant will allow us to increase our capacity to hire additional people to reach out and provide assistance to businesses in underserved markets. We are grateful to the SBA for this grant because this will help ensure that all businesses have access to resources available to them."

Alumni Mark and Tiffany Baker Revitalizing Historic 12 Points District

November 16, 2021

After successful careers abroad, when Mark, ’07 and Tiffany, ’08, Baker returned to Terre Haute in 2018 their short-term plan is to create long-term impact focused on restoring and revitalizing the 12 Points neighborhood. During the move away from their careers, Mark and Tiffany created a real-estate company, 3 Sisters Investments.

Their own business allows them to restore and modernize local structures, but also, most importantly to them, to control their time. Named in honor of the couple’s three daughters, the company has purchased two historic buildings in 12 Points: the PARQ at 12 Points and Eight Twelve. The buildings will house space for eight commercial tenants and five residential tenants, with 15 studio and workspaces for creatives.

The initiatives in 12 Points have brought a community together through car shows, trunk-or-treats, and other family-friendly events. Earlier this year, the Bakers, and the nonprofit organization 12 Points Revitalization, Inc. set a goal to raise $50,000, which the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority would match. The community rose to the occasion, raising more than $70,000 in the crowdfunding campaign. A total of $160,000 was raised for the revitalization efforts.

MBA Association Collaborates with Televerde

November 15, 2021

“Be the change you want to see in this world” - This Gandhian philosophy is often lost in translation because while the intent is there, the opportunity isn’t.

In partnership with Televerde Foundation, the MBA Association was able to check off on both intent and opportunity. After 9 weeks of intense reciprocation, we can humbly state that the lives of MBA fellows have been transformed as much as the lives we sought to transform.

Bahareh Javadizadeh

Working one-on-one, MBA fellows (Martha Vaughn, Sarah Schikora, Youssef El Ouzzani, Sarah Alzahrani, Paul Wells, Pushpita Haque, Ping Lin, and Tramauryia Hunter) met weekly with Televerde foundation PATHS incarcerated women to share the professional knowledge we’ve learned in our careers as well as the MBA program.

Once the PATHS women graduated from the program, MBA fellows had the opportunity to visit the Women’s Federal prisons in Madison and Rockville to present certifications and give the MBA mentors and Televerde mentees the chance to finally meet in person and shake hands. To say it was a rewarding experience is an understatement of the emotions felt during the visits.

Thank you to Dr. Bahareh Javadizadeh for her continuous efforts in connecting MBA fellows with such a wonderful organization and for working with Michelle Cirocco to facilitate both visits. We look forward to growing the Indiana State University and Telervede partnership through the MBA program in the future.

I have considered financial planning, insurance, banking, and even furthering my undergraduate degree after I graduate from Indiana State in May of 2022.”
