The Minority Pontotoc-Union-Lee (PUL) Alliance seeks to be a
catalyst for improving economic opportunities for minorities
throughout Mississippi by supporting diversity in business,
empowering individuals, and fostering entrepreneurship. VISTA
members Adriana Cooper (2018-2019) and Candice Williams
(2019-2020) have built upon these efforts by cultivating
community partnerships, advancing resource development,
supporting the institutionalization of volunteer initiatives, and
elevating public awareness efforts to support minority-owned
businesses. The VISTA members will fight poverty by enhancing
economic opportunities available to minority-owned businesses in
the form of jobs, entrepreneurship, and financial resources.
