Hey @DARTDallas why doesn't DART provide free passes for veterans? There is a mishmash of other orgs providing some offbeat options, but that creates confusion. It could all be so much easier if you just gave #veterans a simple pass option. Please consider this.

@BizCamps @PeopleFund Robert was outstanding. We love telling small businesses and our #veterans about @PeopleFund and their alternatives to more conventional funding options for business.

We all appreciate her knowledge and willingness to share from her own experience. She is just outstanding! The tools she shared were a huge hit, people were at the edge of their seats - we can all #growwithgoogle - especially our #veteran attendees!

Big thanks to @Google for sending @mariaduron to speak at @BizCamps in Dallas about Reaching Customers Online. She brings such great energy to the room and having grown up in a military family, she relates really well to our #veteran participants and their families.

Shout out to @PeopleFund and thanks for sending Robert Zuniga to share alternative business funding options with our participants in Dallas on Friday. He was a hit! One #veteran attendee told us "I had no idea there was anything like this available!" Go to peoplefund.org
