As National Native American Heritage Month, November is a time to celebrate the enduring legacy of tribal culture, history, and self-preservation. For the SBA specifically, it is an opportunity to support Native American entrepreneurs and highlight their impressive contributions. Take Carrie Hill, for example. A Haudenosaunee member from the Akwesasne Mohawk Territory, Carrie turned her multigenerational family tradition of basketmaking into a business with the help of the SBA. After consulting her local Small Business Development Center (SBDC) in New York, Carrie founded Chill Baskets, a gift shop that showcases the artistic expression of the Haudenosaunee people.
