UFI 1650 Campaign

At Unlimited Future, Inc. (UFI), we believe the heartbeat of thriving communities are small businesses. Since 1992, we’ve seen this firsthand, as we’ve nurtured entrepreneurs, provided the right tools, resources, and support to help them transform our neighborhood, city, and region into a powerful engine for economic growth and personal empowerment.

We’re asking you today to help us keep this vital work going – whether it’s a monthly donation of $16.50 or if you can offer a one-time donation of $1,650 or $16,500, or even more. Every penny counts as we help everyday people, make a change to their everyday lives through small business ownership.
