Eligibility
Small businesses must have a business plan, secured space, and agree to provide in-kind service or volunteerism to support their community and become a champion and anchor in their neighborhood. The grants are offered to encourage small business owners to set up shop in what members call priority neighborhoods.
Research by United Way discovered that some neighborhoods are struggling to remain vital. Their situation would greatly benefit from the presence of small businesses. The partnership will award four grants, each worth $5,000. The grants are part of a broad-based community and economic revitalization program.
Application deadline is July 1, 2017.
