In the News: Main Street Grants Helping Local Businesses

Main Street Grants Helping Local Businesses

If you are a Main Street business serving your community and looking for a grant to keep your company going during these trying times, there are some grants specifically geared to help you.

These grants have limited funds, but they are designed to help specific sectors. And in many cases, it is these types of grants that are the difference between staying open and shutting the doors. You can get grants from $500 to $10,000 and possibly more. Some of the grants are the Atlanta QuickBooks Restaurant Relief Program; Windsor ARPA Grant Program, and Downtown North Wilkesboro Partnership Small Business Micro-Grant Program.

These grants are only available in the communities they serve and therefore have limited funds. But make sure to keep an eye on your community for such opportunities. This is because applying early gives you the best chance to get the funds these grants offer.
