GRANTS
Stabilization Grants
For small business
Purpose
to support specific projects that will help the business to grow or to overcome an obstacle that limits its ability to operate at full capacity.
Funding Priorities
In recognition of the historical and systemic disinvestment in communities of color, as well as the inequitable access to capital experienced by BIPOC, immigrant, and women merchants, TMF prioritizes support to these business owners in an effort to address historic disparities and build wealth within these communities.
