Grant to Support Small Business Stability and Growth in California (USA)
GrantID: 75462
Grant Funding Amount Low: $2,500
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $2,500
Summary
A business funding opportunity is available across the United States for small, for-profit companies. The key focus is on businesses that have been operating for at least two years, are generating annual revenues of approximately $50,000 or more, and have a very small staff (often just the owner plus one additional team member). The goal of this funding is to provide non-dilutive support—meaning you don’t have to give up any ownership interest—to help with everyday business needs and growth efforts.
The grant can be used for a range of purposes: covering operational costs like utilities or rent, purchasing inventory or software, investing in marketing or bookkeeping services, or supporting professional development. The intention is to help a small business move from simply maintaining to intentionally growing: stronger infrastructure, improved tools, and better positioning for future opportunities.
Applicants must be U.S.-based and clearly show how the funds would be used, with a short narrative of how this investment would impact the business. Only one application per business is allowed, and the review is designed for simplicity and accessibility for smaller entrepreneurs. Funds are awarded on a quarterly basis, with one recipient selected every quarter. Deadlines are rolling, meaning applications are accepted year-round but winners are announced at the end of each quarter.
Overall, this opportunity is ideal for small businesses that may not have easy access to traditional financing, with only one or two staff members, and are ready to put a relatively modest grant amount to targeted use. If you’re a U.S.-based business with a consistent track record and clear plan for how a small injection of funds could move the needle, this may be a very helpful opportunity to consider.
Organizations and individuals based in California who are engaged in Community Development & Services 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.
