我们的进展
In 2022, we launched a Special Purpose Credit Program for small businesses in historically underserved areas and, in 2023, expanded the program to include business credit cards. Since its launch, the program has helped more than 16,000 small businesses access credit through credit cards and lending.

Supporting Entrepreneurs in Underserved Areas
From 1:1 coaching, to technical assistance and capital, our new investments are geared towards growing and supporting small businesses.
Investing in Minority Depository Institutions
We appreciate the unique role that Minority Depository Institutions (MDIs) play in our communities. We have exceeded our commitment included in our 种族权益 Commitment by investing more than $100 million of equity in Black, Hispanic and Latino-owned and -led MDIs and CDFIs in 2021, and we continue to provide access to our expertise, resources and network, creating opportunities for business collaboration, community engagement, 和指导.
Increasing Supplier 多样性
Our approach to working with suppliers includes leveraging the strength of our procurement organization, business and community partners to lower the common barriers faced by small or historically underrepresented businesses. As part of our 种族权益 Commitment, we pledged to spend an additional $750 million with Black, Hispanic and Latino-owned suppliers by 2025. We reached this goal in 2023, two years ahead of schedule, and aim for this work to continue beyond the five-year commitment.
