"Let me tell you how amazing Natalie (TD Bank Store Manager-Harlem) is. She had a great opportunity where a big box store closed and left all of their furniture. She was able to make the connection. We were able to get all these tables and chairs. We had to have two moving trucks to get it all. Natalie helped us save thousands of dollars, like that was awesome! That helped us tremendously. And she's just been our partner, like our third partner in a sense."
— Janine Smalls-Gueye and Lanise Herman-Thomas, co-founders of Veganhood

"As I’ve worked to pass more than twenty LGBTQ2+ inclusive laws and policies in more than a dozen states across America, I regularly encourage business owners to take advantage of not just LGBTBE certification from the NGLCC, but also the unique suite of services offered specifically for our communities from TD Bank. Knowing your business is being supported by those with the personal passions and understanding of what our communities need is such a valuable differentiator in the marketplace.”

"The TD team I worked with was extremely instrumental in helping not only acquire the different practices but in the real estate as well. It will not go exactly as you plan. However, with a trusted team behind you, it will be doable. Personally, to me, that relationship means everything. You are valued, you are supported, and you have an organization behind you that wants you to succeed. 42% of women business owners is still not enough, because women make it happen."
—Dr. Vivian Graham, Owner of Modern Micro Endodontics
