H.E.A.L International is in the planning and development phase of an Economic Development and Micro-Credit Financing initiative aimed at supporting refugee and immigrant entrepreneurs in the City of Buffalo. While we are not yet fully able to implement this initiative due to the current need for dedicated space to provide hands-on training and practice, this program remains a key priority for our organization.

Once operational, the initiative will offer financial education, business training, and practical experience to help participants develop sustainable micro-enterprises. We believe this program has the potential to become one of the most impactful and rewarding initiatives for Buffalo’s refugee community by promoting entrepreneurship, economic independence, and long-term community stability.

Goal: To train and assist aspiring refugee entrepreneurs.
