Hip Hop mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs donated $100,000 dollars to the 100 Urban Entrepreneurs. It feels good to know celebrities are giving back in a positive way to inspire our youth.
The Sean "Diddy" Combs Entrepreneurial Fund assists young, business minded individuals through the help of $10,000 dollars and a three month mentoring program. The program will fund startups to minority entrepreneurs and various industries.
100 Urban Entrepreneurs are "To identify, finance and mentor 100 urban entrepreneurs from economically disadvantaged communities within 12 months — often through live business-pitch events in cities across the United States — in order to highlight the urban community’s untapped business potential and demonstrate, to an additional 1 million–plus entrepreneurs, a proven path forward to business and financial success."
