Carlos Kyles grew up in the small town of Century and was bullied frequently in school. He would be called names, cursed at, and people regularly tried to physically hurt him.

Kyles’ bullying made him develop anger issues and depression but he found help through therapy. Now he wants to do the same for others by creating his own startup company to help those who have been bullied by finding alternative ways to heal through his startup Polisal.

“I came up with the company because I wanted to find creative ways to share my story and to help people heal and grow from bullying,” Kyles said.

The problem for people like Kyles, who is Black, and many Black and brown entrepreneurs, according to Lloyd Reshard, is they don’t know about the resources and ways to get money to help their startups flourish.
