The Business Council for Peace (Bpeace) is an award-winning nonprofit organization based in Brooklyn, NY. They work in crisis-affected communities to support the growth of small and medium-sized businesses, create employment opportunities, and empower women economically. Bpeace achieves this by providing customized business consulting through volunteer business experts, known as Skillanthropists, to carefully selected businesses, referred to as Fast Runners. Their mission is to demonstrate that employment is the key to education, poverty reduction, improved health, and ultimately, less violence.
Bpeace operates in the United States, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Afghanistan, focusing on communities facing various challenges such as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, gang violence, climate change, and economic insecurity. They prioritize supporting Black, Latino, Asian, and women-led businesses to ensure a more inclusive and equitable rebuilding process. By creating jobs and fostering collaboration between businesses and Skillanthropists, Bpeace aims to stabilize families and communities while promoting the advancement of women in society.
