Letâs set the scene.Youâve got a dream, a business, and a million-dollar mindset.But your bank account is giving... âgirl, weâre in this together.â đ
Youâre doing everything right: showing up, building, posting, packaging, and praying. But still, growth costs money. And unless youâve got a rich tĂo or you're down to entertain one more DM that starts with âGrand rising, Queen⊠Iâd love to invest in your energyâ â you need another way.
Good news? That way exists.Itâs called a grant â aka free money for your business.No loans. No interest.And definitely no dudes in velvet hats offering to fund your healing journey.
Let me put you on to 3 juicy, legit grants that every small business baddie should be running (not walking) to apply for:
đ§ 1. SBIR â For the Brainy Baddies Building the Future
You donât need a lab coat to apply â but if your business is creating something innovative (think tech, apps, medical tools, or any âShark Tankâ moment in the making), this oneâs for YOU.
đĄ SBIR = Small Business Innovation ResearchBasically, the government says, âHereâs a big olâ check, now go be a genius.â

U.S.-based
Less than 500 employees
51% U.S.-owned
Why it slaps:Â Not only does it give you money, it gives you credibility. Like âohhh sheâs serious-seriousâ energy. Investors love seeing SBIR on your track record â itâs like Ivy League for funding.
đ 2. EDA â For the Bosses Rebuilding the Block
This oneâs for the visionaries. The hometown heroes. The business owners who arenât just building a brand â theyâre building impact.
đ EDA = Economic Development AdministrationThis grant funds projects that create jobs and uplift local communities.

Small businesses with big plans

đ 3. Amber Grant â For the Girls Who Mean Business and Look Good Doing It
Now this one? Chefâs kiss.Created just for women entrepreneurs (no gatekeeping), the Amber Grant is the feel-good funding glow-up we all deserve.

Why itâs fire:Â The app isnât scary. The vibes are supportive. And they genuinely care about your story â not your follower count or bank balance. Just what you're building and why it matters.
