RALEIGH, N.C. - Missouriar -- The National Small Business Association (NSBA) elected Olalah Njenga to serve on the Board of Trustees for a three-year term staring in 2022. NSBA is the nation's oldest small business advocacy organization and operates on a staunchly non-partisan basis. Njenga, a recognized leader in the small business community, joins other small business advocates from across the country working to promote small business interests to policymakers in Washington, D.C.

"Workforce, Organization, Capitalization and Compliance are the four forces of the small business economy. Each of these forces present challenges and opportunities for business owners," stated Njenga. "Overcoming those challenges and leveraging those opportunities through good policy-making is essential. I look forward to working with NSBA as we urge Congress and the Administration to ease small business burdens and support pro small business policies."
