The Sacramento region thrives when entrepreneurs from all backgrounds succeed! StartupSac fuels the growth of innovative businesses by equipping founders—including those from underrepresented and under-resourced communities—with the knowledge, connections, and support they need to launch and scale. Through education, mentorship, and community-building, we strengthen the local startup ecosystem—boosting economic opportunity and innovation for everyone. Investing in StartupSac means investing in a more inclusive, vibrant, and resilient future for Sacramento’s economy, businesses, and families.
StartupSac's mission is to empower entrepreneurs in the greater Sacramento region to launch and grow their businesses. We provide education, mentorship, and community connections to help founders navigate their journey from idea to impact—strengthening the local economy and fostering a more inclusive business community.
StartupSac Needs Your Support to Empower More Entrepreneurs!
Thanks to generous funding, we’re expanding our impact in 2025 by running three cohorts of the StartupSac FastTrac Entrepreneurial Training Program, providing hands-on education and mentorship to aspiring business owners. However, our upcoming Del Paso Heights cohort is still $5,000 short of full funding—and we need your help to bridge the gap and ensure these entrepreneurs have the support they need to thrive!
In addition, unrestricted funding is essential to sustaining StartupSac’s ongoing programs that educate, connect, and empower entrepreneurs across the Sacramento region.
Your contribution helps us:
-Provide high-quality training and mentorship to new business owners
-Expand access to resources for underrepresented entrepreneurs
-Keep our programs and events accessible to the community
This Big Day of Giving, we’re aiming to raise $12,000 to fuel our mission. With your support, we can make a lasting impact on Sacramento’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. Every dollar counts!
At StartupSac, we believe that entrepreneurship should be accessible to everyone, regardless of background or resources. We are committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable startup ecosystem by providing education, mentorship, and opportunities for underrepresented and under-resourced entrepreneurs. By breaking down barriers and expanding access to support, we empower a diverse community of founders to launch and grow businesses that strengthen Sacramento’s economy and drive innovation for all.
