Invest in Your Story City Business! The Story City Chamber/Main Street is thrilled to share a valuable opportunity for our local small businesses! The Backing Small Businesses grant program, backed by American Express, is offering $10,000 grants to support projects that will help your business flourish, build long-term strength, and enhance your community reach.
Imagine what you could do with $10,000 to improve your operations, expand your services, or launch a new initiative! Plus, recipients of the initial grant may even be eligible for a $30,000 Enhancement Grant later on!
The application window is brief, from now until July 31st at 11:59 p.m. CT. We encourage all eligible businesses to explore this opportunity!
