No. Enterprising Black Orlando and The Community Exchange are connectors and conveners. We don’t offer services ourselves—but we amplify the organizations that do, creating easier access, deeper relationships, and better outcomes for business owners.
Not automatically. The Community Exchange provides personalized recommendations based on your intake responses, but you’ll still need to connect directly with our partner organizations to complete their application or qualification process.
Each partner has its own criteria for funding, programs, or services. Our role is to guide you to the right doors—getting through them depends on the fit, readiness, and follow-up between you and the partner.
But don’t worry—we’re here to support your journey and help you stay on track every step of the way.
The Community Exchange was created with a clear mission: to close the racial wealth gap and uplift the economic power of Black-owned businesses in Central Florida. That commitment remains at the center of everything we do.
But we believe in building a thriving ecosystem where all entrepreneurs have a chance to succeed. While we center Black businesses, we also welcome partners, allies, and businesses of all backgrounds who share our vision of equity, access, and shared prosperity.
If you’re facing barriers—we see you, and we’re here to help break them down. Because when one of us rises, we all rise.
Yes, absolutely! We encourage you to revisit the intake form anytime your business evolves—whether you’re just getting started, expanding, pivoting, or facing new challenges.
As your needs change, start here first. Updating your responses helps us connect you to the most relevant resources, partners, and opportunities to support your next step.

Absolutely. Your privacy and security are a top priority for us. All information submitted through The Community Exchange intake form is confidential and securely stored.

We are committed to protecting your data and using it solely to support your business growth and success.
