A word about the Black Chamber of Commerce of Anne Arundel County, Inc.

The BCCAAC, Inc. was conceived and organized by the Rev. Dr. Walter E. Middlebrooks.



Its existence was the result of several meetings with community groups called by Rev. Middlebrooks to discuss economic issues affecting African Americans. Many of the chartered members attended those meetings. BCCAAC’s mission and purpose as envisioned by its founder, is guided by the belief that small businesses are the bedrock of America’s economy. In fact, according to the MBE Magazine, September/October 2002, small businesses created 75% of America’s new jobs. Small businesses account for half of our national employment, and nearly half of our gross domestic product. Minority-women-owned businesses are growing segments of this small business population, and their success affects the nation’s overall economic health more significantly than many people realize.

The Black Chamber of Commerce of Anne Arundel County, Inc. recognized the potential contribution of MBE’s and therefore, commits its resources and energy towards the practice of Advocacy-Education-Networking-Facilitation- and in general helping to create a climate that will improve the playing field for MBE’s and particularly, African Americans. BCCAAC’s goal is to raise funds for the purpose of promoting and aiding in the development of MBE’s. BCCAAC is a tax exempt IRS 501 © 6 trade association. The BCCAAC was organized in April and incorporated in September of 2002, by legal counsel, Mr. Midgett Parker, Esq.
