For most City construction projects, firms must be bonded in order to effectively compete and bid. Obtaining bonding for City construction projects has historically been a barrier to participation for small, minority and women owned firms. The City of Charlotte's Contractor Development Program is a comprehensive program to better prepare small, minority and women owned firms to compete on City projects. Resources include technical assistance, business development, financial guidance and assistance obtaining bonding for those who participate.

Join the kick off event and learn more about this Program and how to participate!

Refreshments will be provided; Parking information will be sent via email.

<What is the meaning of INDEPENDENCE>

It means you live as the master of your own life. You decide what to do and you are responsible for the result. Just like an individual decides the direction of their life on their own terms, the fate of a nation should be decided by the people. Even if a country is small, its right should be respected.

We live in America as the members of a minority ethnic community. Our community should be respected and each one of us, younger or older, Korean-speaking or English-speaking, should be able to live as the master of one's own life and the community.

This movie tells the story of the hero who fought for independence from imperialism. This story will hopefully inspire the young generation of Korean Americans, but also inform our community friends of Korean history.

Free tickets are available by request at Charlotte.Korean.net. The movie will have English subtitles.
