The Save Small Business Fund was a grant program developed in April 2020 to provide assistance to small business owners impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The program distributed 1,246 grants to small business owners located in economically vulnerable communities across the nation to help keep their doors open. The $5,000 grants provided a lifeline for small businesses on the brink of financial catastrophe and were an important bridge to help bring back employees, pay rent, handle reopening costs, and other important expenses.
The Save Small Business Fund was made possible by the generosity of our corporate and philanthropic funding partners, including Altice, Merck, Vistaprint, American Express, Guardian, S&P Global Foundation, Travelers, and Capital One’s The Match.
