The year 2003 is a great milestone for the U.S. Small Business Administration
(SBA); it is our 50th Anniversary.
This milestone presents us with an opportunity to celebrate the
incredible contributions that small businesses have made to this
great Nation.
Since the founding of our country, small businesses have contributed
immeasurably to our progress and economic strength. Small business
is an enduring symbol of the American Dream.
For the last 50 years, the SBA has played a vital role in ensuring
that the door to the American Dream is truly open to all entrepreneurs,
because the dream should never be limited by access to capital, information
or training. In America, an entrepreneur's only limit should be his
or her own ideas and desire to succeed.
Please join me in celebrating America's small businesses, and the SBA's commitment
to help entrepreneurs keep that American Dream alive and well for today, and
for future generations.
Sincerely,
Hector V. Barreto
