Since the start of the pandemic, NJ Advance Media Cares provided more than $1.6 million in marketing support to help New Jersey businesses through one of the most economically devastating times residents and the business communities have ever experienced. At the same time, the NJ Advance Media newsroom launched N.J. is Open* to connect businesses with their customers.
Continuing the corporate mission to “strengthen and empower the communities we serve,” NJ Advance Media, which publishes NJ.com, The Star-Ledger, The Times of Trenton and other affiliated papers, will add a focus on minority-owned businesses, which historically face more economic and systemic challenges to achieving success.
The Mosaic Empowerment Program is currently open to minority-owned businesses located in Essex County and Mercer County. The free application period is open through April 17.
