was created by Denise Moore and the Black Business Alliance to aid 
aspiring business owners get their ideas off the ground. The Minority 
Business Development Center addresses concerns like lack of resource 
accessibility and a need for training on topics addressing business 
expansion. The organization serves the Peoria community by providing 
local aspiring business owners with education and training in the 
fundamentals of business planning and development. I am deeply grateful 
to Denise Moore and the Minority Business Development Center for their 
service to the Peoria community.
  It is because of community leaders such as Denise Moore that I am 
especially proud to
