Mother’s Day falls on May 9th this year, so you still have time to put together a gift that secures your status as the favorite child for one more year.

All jokes aside, this is an important time of year. Far too often mothers don’t get the recognition they deserve as the resident mediator, budget analyst, chef, maid, and the list goes on. Even with the bottomless collection of job titles, minority women are launching businesses faster than ever, with black women leading the way.

So many women turn to entrepreneurship because of their families. Not only do these businesses keep dollars within the black community, they help build generational wealth and inspire confidence and entrepreneurship skills in the next generation.

What better way to celebrate mom than a beautiful gift from one black mother to another? Find a black mother-owned business to support on The BOOM App.

Happy Mother’s Day queens!
