Summary
A grant opportunity is available to support small businesses located across the United States and U.S. territories. This funding is intended for for-profit businesses, with a strong focus on those led by individuals from historically underrepresented communities. Eligible applicants include business owners identifying as minorities, women, immigrants, or LGBTQ+. Nonprofit organizations and individuals without a formally registered business are not eligible.
Each selected business may receive a $10,000 cash grant, along with access to business-related services or resources valued at approximately $500. The funding is intended to help cover a range of operational needs, including inventory, equipment, marketing, legal support, or business development. The aim is to reduce financial barriers that often limit the growth and sustainability of small businesses. This program is part of a broader national initiative conducted in collaboration with private sector and community-based partners. It is awarded on an annual basis and includes multiple application windows throughout the year. Businesses that are chosen not only receive direct financial support, but also benefit from long-term access to tools designed to improve their business structure and strategy.
To qualify, businesses must be in operation for at least three months, earn less than $1 million in annual revenue, be properly registered, and maintain an active business bank account. Businesses operating for less than three months may still be eligible for non-cash service benefits. The review process emphasizes community impact, business need, and potential for long-term success. Selected businesses typically reflect a strong commitment to local economic development and job creation. This grant opportunity offers both funding and practical support to help small business owners grow and stabilize their operations. For eligible entrepreneurs, it provides a meaningful way to strengthen their business foundations and position themselves for future success.
Organizations and individuals based in Arizona who are engaged in Women may be eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. To discover more grants that align with your mission and objectives, visit The Grant Portal and explore listings using the Search Grant tool.
