The San Antonio Latino Dream Makers Fund is helping entrepreneurs who have an idea and passion launch small businesses by helping them gain access to capital. LiftFund and Bank of America launched the revolving loan fund to help Hispanic entrepreneurs turn their dreams into dollars. Hispanics already account for 66% of LiftFund’s San Antonio clients. Marcela Freeman is among them. Not only does she have a newborn at home, she’s nurturing another baby — her business. Freeman launched Burn It In 30, where she and her team motivate women to get healthier through nutrition, fitness coaching and lots of burpees. Four years ago, she quit her job in marketing to pursue her side hustle — personal fitness training. Her “a-ha” moment came when a client began to cry.
