Serving Pierce County: SAB OPEN JOBS >

SAB was formed to help area businesses overcome COVID-19 challenges. The program employs MSB students part-time to assist with special projects at no cost to the company. These projects range from marketing analyses, to customer outreach, to detailed plans on whether a business should be maintained, to social media, and even to loan program data collection and review.

The University of Washington Tacoma MSB Students Assisting Business program is a truly innovative solution. New business models have been tested and launched with the power of new affordable media channels. Participating owners appreciate the clarity a fresh perspective can bring.
SAB is here for the long-term helping to keep our community strong, Covid and beyond.
