The El Paso Hispanic Chamber Of Commerce

The El Paso Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit organization registered as a minority-owned, woman-owned, and Hispanic American-owned business located in El Paso, Texas. Established prior to 2006 and currently registered in SAM.gov until October 2025, the organization primarily serves as a support network for small businesses, with a particular focus on women-owned and minority-owned enterprises in the El Paso region. Through its federal grant awards, the Chamber provides comprehensive entrepreneurial development services, including business training, counseling, technical assistance, and access to capital resources for underserved business communities.

The organization has consistently secured federal grants from multiple agencies, including the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA), to deliver critical support services. Specifically, the Chamber has been awarded cooperative agreements and project grants totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars to provide targeted assistance to minority and women-owned businesses. These grants have focused on removing discriminatory barriers, offering COVID-19 relief support, and delivering specialized training and advisory services. Notable grant programs include the Women's Business Ownership Assistance Program (CFDA 59.043) and the MBDA Business Center program, which have enabled the Chamber to assist minority businesses with technical assistance, training, education, and advisory services. The grants have supported objectives such as helping businesses navigate pandemic-related challenges, submit applications for government assistance programs, and develop strategies for economic growth and resilience.
