What a fantastic opportunity for marginalized founders to gain the funding they need to flourish! As someone who’s navigated the journey of raising capital, I can say that this kind of support can be a game changer for businesses aiming for growth. These grants not only provide financial boost but also foster a sense of community among entrepreneurs.

This is such a valuable resource! Thank you for providing it. Chjame Jones - this might be helpful for you.
Are black men eligible for this grant? If not, are there any resources for black men starting their own business?
Are there any grants for women owned businesses without the 2-employee restriction?
