In order to bring 12 local businesses that are owned by women-of-color, New England Revolution Foundation has recently collaborated with Women of Color Entrepreneurs (WOCE). This alliance shall bring these local businesses to a Pop-Up Market in the Revolution Fan Zone.

On July 20, this event shall be held before the annual Match of the club for C.H.A.N.G.E. from 4:30 - 7:30 p.m. ET. The revolution shall take place following the close of the market in the plaza on FC Dallas Gillette Stadium (7:30 p.m. ET) in Major League Soccer (MLS) action.

WOCE, founded in the year 2019, assists women of color entrepreneurs, aiming to expand and build multicultural female-owned businesses.

Moreover, Brian Bilello, the Revolution President stated, “We are excited to host WOCE and a dozen of their talented entrepreneurs at the Revolution's Match for C.H.A.N.G.E. this Saturday, putting an important spotlight on the crucial work they do to uplift women-owned small businesses in our community. Ever since our players selected WOCE as a recipient of a grant nearly two years ago, the Revolution have been proud to help provide a platform for these local entrepreneurs to continue expanding and growing. We encourage all of the Revolution fans heading to Gillette Stadium on Saturday to stop by the Fan Zone to help us support these local businesses."
