Who it's for
Built for real people with real ideas.
You do not need a business degree or a perfect pitch. You need an idea, a willingness to work, and a community willing to walk with you.
-
First-time founders
You have an idea but do not know where to start. We will help you figure it out, step by step.
-
Side-hustlers ready to go full-time
Your business is already generating revenue. Now it is time to build the systems to scale.
-
Established businesses needing structure
You have been trading for a while but need the financial discipline, marketing clarity, or team to grow.
-
Faith-driven entrepreneurs
You want to build a business that reflects your values. Prayer and pastoral care are available, never required.
Frequently asked questions
Answers before you ask.
The incubator is a Foundation program. Seats are funded by gifts, grants, and partner workforce programs. There is no coaching fee to apply.
Session times and the weekly commitment will be shared when the next cohort, its seats, and its training site are confirmed.
You need an idea or direction, not a full business plan. Some founders come with a clear concept; others come with a skill and a hunch. We will help you refine it during the first two weeks.
The goal is a working offer at the end of twelve weeks, with a next step into work, credentials, or continued support from the Foundation.
The incubator is for people in our Maryland communities, rooted primarily in South Baltimore (Brooklyn, Curtis Bay, and Cherry Hill).
Still have questions? We are happy to talk through the programme with you, no pressure, no commitment.
