History
About the CEO
LuzElena Rivers started Amera Solutions on the grassroots level with a desire to help her community. In 2010 she identified a need for ambulatory outpatient transportation. From tough beginnings herself, Mrs. Rivers developed an affinity for those who lacked the resources to take care of themselves and their families. Mrs. Rivers self-funded the start of Amera, growing it to the $10 million company it is today.
As a recognized woman-owned Latino business with revenues over $1 million, Mrs. Rivers won a prestigious scholarship to Stanford University’s SLEI program followed by Goldman Sachs’ 10KSB program connecting thousands of entrepreneurs nationwide. In 2021 Mrs. Rivers was recognized by Forbes in their annual NEXT 1000 list, which celebrates entrepreneurial heroes. Mrs. Rivers accredits Amera’s success in supporting her community and, in 2014, launched the Rivers for Health Foundation, a non-profit that financially supports medical services, health fairs, and educational scholarships. Aside from further expanding Amera, Mrs. Rivers looks to continue her work as a beacon of light to empower women entrepreneurs.
