Toledo Public Schools is hosting a Minority Business Networking Event on Thursday, October 21, 2021 at Thurgood Marshall Auditorium – 1609 N. Summit Street, from 5 – 7 p.m. ~ light refreshments will be provided
This evening will be a great opportunity for local minority business owners to connect with TPS and other local companies. The district is committed to developing stronger partnerships with area minority businesses and we want to ensure you have the most current and accurate vendor information. TPS is also anxious to talk to you about connecting with one or more of our current high school students who have expressed an interest in a career that aligns with your business. Perhaps you or someone from your company would be interested in acting as a mentee to a student or offer the student an internship.
Pursuant to Board Policy DJCA, which defines local (“MBE”) as companies that (i) are owned at least 51 percent by African Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, Asian-Pacific and Subcontinent Asian Americans or Women; and (ii) either maintain their principal place of business within Lucas County, Ohio or at least 51 percent of the employees reside within the District.
If you are interested in participating in the Minority Business Networking Event, please email tspecialist@tps.org or call 419-671-0338.. Space is limited and COVID restrictions will be followed. Deadline for registration is Friday October 15, 2021.
