Supporting Black Entrepreneurs in Canada, with FACE’s Tiffany Callender
Manage episode 407818945 series 2597779
This week, my guest is Tiffany Callender, a community developer and social entrepreneur whose work has profoundly impacted Montreal's Black community over her 16-year career. As the youngest female Executive Director of one of Quebec's oldest Black organizations, Tiffany was named among the 100 most influential people of African descent under 40 in 2020. In 2021, she spearheaded the creation of the Federation of African Canadian Economics (FACE) for which she is CEO, where she set up the $160 million Black Entrepreneurship Loan Fund in collaboration with Canada’s federal government. In this conversation, we discuss FACE’s impact on the Black entrepreneurial community three years later.
A passionate advocate for social equity, Tiffany has actively contributed to shaping policies to address racism and systemic discrimination, including her work with Montreal’s consultation on racism and systemic discrimination and Quebec’s Laurent Commission on protecting Black children in the Youth Protection system. In addition to her professional accomplishments, Tiffany is a devoted mother of three, an aspect of her life that inspires her career.
