The African-American Partners For Prosperity (AAPP) is a 501 C(3) non-profit organization whose vision is to inform, educate, and advocate on behalf of Small Business Owners experiencing extremely disproportionate contracting results within the public-private sector throughout the state of Washington.
AAPP has developed strategic alignments with the Greater Seattle Chamber of Commerce, Regional Prosperity Partnership, Puget Sound Regional Council, Urban Enterprise Center, and a number of ethnic Chambers of Commerce in the Puget Sound area. Our goal is to establish effective partnering relationships between small business firms and mainstream businesses that are collaborative and mutually beneficial to all parties. Through our Power Lunch Programs and annual state-wide Small Business Trade Conferences, small firms now network with majority firms as well as key decision makers in the public-private sector business community.
"Our Puget Sound economy depends on great partnerships, great innovation and a belief that working together leads to sustained vitality and prosperity." - Bob Drewel PSRC Executive Director
