Talk Business & Politics, in partnership with Arvest Bank, recently honored the top businesses in 2024 throughout Northeast Arkansas. Nominees were gathered from around the region and a select panel of judges chose four finalists in each of these categories: large, small, startup and nonprofit. This week, we will feature the finalists and winners by category in a four-part series.
In the nonprofit category, El Centro Hispano was the winner as chosen by the judges. The nonprofit was started in Jonesboro in 1997. It offers services and programs to help improve the lives of immigrants in NEA and across the state.
Other nominees in the category include CASA of the Second Judicial District, the Kharis Group, and KLEK 102.5.
