Supporting the growth of small businesses everywhere is one of the many way FedEx invests its charitable resources. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted thousands of entrepreneurs, especially when it comes to getting access to capital funding. That’s why FedEx is collaborating with nonprofits like Acción, one of the world’s leading global microfinance organizations. In Brazil, FedEx is helping support financial technology start-ups, often called fintech, through the Acción Venture Lab. This fintech ecosystem provides small businesses across the country access to affordable and convenient financial capital as well as consulting and technical advice.
