SUMMARY:The MBL and Peoples Advantage Presents: Understanding Your Credit
DESCRIPTION:Guide/Connect/Succeed\n\n\n\n\n\nFor Over 50 years\, the Metropolitan Business League (MBL) has been the backbone for the development\, support\, and advancement of small\, minority\, and women-owned businesses in the Richmond and tri-cities area. To promote economic prosperity in Virginia through leadership\, education\, training\, and advocacy for small\, women\, and minority-owned businesses.\n\nAt the MBL\, we believe that no business is a silo.
