DivInc's annual Champions of Change Awards celebrate underrepresented entrepreneurs to "generate social and economic equity through entrepreneurship."

All funds raised toward DivInc's $150,000 goal will help support that mission. It's a great place to keep the giving going after Amplify Austin last week — along with many of the spotlighted businesses.
