Amplify POC Cape Cod is a racial justice initiative to help amplify the businesses owned by people of color (POC) on Cape Cod. Amplify was founded by Tara Vargas-Wallace, after the murder of George Floyd.
A list of Black owned businesses did not exist for the Cape region, and therefore, Tara created one as part of Amplify's first endeavour. After some discussion with her local NAACP it was decided that due to the dynamics on the Cape it would be best to include all businesses owned by people of color as there simply weren't enough Black-Owned businesses in the region.
The goal then became to amplify businesses owned by all marginalized groups of people thus adopting the term POC for People of Color. The work of Amplify POC includes business development workshops, networking and mentorship support, vendor markets, student scholarships, business grants and more.
