Whether large or small, COVID has had a detrimental impact on businesses around the world. But for many small businesses that are still trying to dig themselves out, grants have been an invaluable source. And this has resulted in public and private entities offering grants to address specific issues small businesses are dealing with.
One thing to note about these grants is they are not big. However, because they are strategically given to specific small business owners they might have a big impact. The following grants are offering anywhere between $1,000 to $5,000 to support different industries and business owners.
