On January 23, 2020, a small group of aspiring entrepreneurs gathered at the Cielito Lindo Cafe, located at 612 West Lake Street, in Maywood, to pitch their business ideas to a team of judges. 

The “Pitch Session” was organized by Deniene Willis, leader of the Community Leadership Academy, a program offered by Proviso Partners for Health (PP4H).  PP4H has been quite active in Maywood, in recent years, seeking to engage community residents in finding solutions that improve the overall well-being of residents and the community.  MORE
