"CWE has helped my journey by believing in women-owned small business and including me in various opportunities over the past year. Without the encouragement and guidance from the supportive staff at CWE I would not have applied for Samuel Adams, Brewing the American Dream&'s 2021 Pitch Room. Not only did your team encourage me, but also cheered me on throughout the pitch! Seemly beaming with pride, tears and joy when my small business was chosen as the 2021 award recipient for Samuel Adams Brewing the American Dream&'s Pitch Room!! I am grateful for the new support system that I have found within your organization and look forward to many other opportunities in 2022!!"
