At Tough Leaf, we’re committed to amplifying free resources that will help our community of certified small and diverse firms thrive. Whenever a member of our extended network of organizational partners has something valuable to share, we’re eager to spread the word.
One such partner is the LaGuardia Community College APEX ACCELERATOR. They have been providing free resources to help small businesses market their goods and services to federal, state, and local governments.
