Main Street America and
Brother International are working together to support small businesses and amplify the importance these enterprises play in communities across the country.
The collaboration will shine a light on inspiring entrepreneurs and provide critical resources and marketing support to small businesses in need.
As part of this initiative, we’ve teamed up to launch the “At Your Side” Small Business Grant Program to provide a total of $75,000 to Main Street small businesses in need. The program will support brick-and-mortar small businesses in
designated Main Street districts as they work to adapt to COVID-19 and prepare for the next phases of reopening across the country, while also helping to revitalize and strengthen older and historic commercial corridors.
Small business applicants may apply for any amount between $5,000 and $10,000 USD and the final awards will be awarded on a competitive basis. A minimum of 50 percent of grants will benefit diverse-owned businesses, defined as BIPOC, woman, veteran, disabled, and/or LGBTQ-owned.
