You Don’t Have to Build Alone.
Running a business can feel lonely—but it doesn’t have to. Get connected with real people who believe in your vision and want to see you win.
Why Is This Free?
We’re a nonprofit organization committed to supporting small business owners and nonprofit founders in Colorado. Our mentorship program is offered at no cost thanks to public funding and community partnerships—so you can focus on growing your vision without the stress of fees or hidden agendas.
Being an Entrepreneur Is Hard—But You’re Not Alone
Being an entrepreneur or small business owner can be isolating. It’s a path filled with passion, but also pressure. Often, your dream isn’t shared—or even understood—by friends or family. You’re left asking yourself:
- Where do I even start?
- Who can I talk to that understands what I’m going through?
- Is there anyone who believes in my vision as much as I do?
At WDC, we understand that running a business is not just about balance sheets and loan applications. It’s about staying motivated when no one’s clapping, making decisions when you don’t have all the answers, and keeping your dream alive in the face of doubt and exhaustion.
The EMP was built to walk with you—not just on paper, but in real life.
Mentorship is just the beginning. To truly set yourself up for success, you need personalized support, proven strategies, and access to valuable resources that empower you to turn ideas into action. That’s why our program is structured to offer more than just advice—it’s a hands-on approach that provides you with the tools and connections needed to navigate challenges, refine your strategies, and achieve long-term business success. Let’s dive into the key benefits of the Entrepreneur Mentorship Program and how it can help you build a thriving business.

No fluff, just practical tools. We’ll help you make sense of business basics like branding, budgeting, marketing, legal setup, and more—so you can build with confidence.
