What is a Business Grant?
A grant is money that is given to a person, business or corporation from federal, state, county or local governments, or private businesses or corporations. There are a number of companies, nonprofits and government agencies providing essentially free money to small business owners in the form of a small business grant. Grants do not require repayment of any kind.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch, right? Small business owners know this phrase more than anyone. But when it comes to launching and growing your small business, there are a number of companies, nonprofits and government agencies providing essentially free money to small business owners in the form of a small business grant.
Grants can be formed to target businesses based on a variety of factors, including minority-owned businesses, specific for-profit businesses as well as non-profit organizations, veteran-owned businesses, grants for women, and more.
You don’t have to make your pitch on “Shark Tank”, refinance your home, hop on crowdfunding platforms, or take out a business loan to take the next step in your entrepreneurial journey — business grants can help you get there, you just need to know where to look and how to apply.
We’ve pulled together a definitive guide for business owners searching for small business grant opportunities. The majority of these have broad application requirements, meaning many businesses qualify.
Keep in mind that this can be a double-edged sword for applicants, though — you can apply for a lot more business grants if the qualifications are broad, but that means more competition for the grant. Often, you can find more success by finding niche grants for your industry, or based on your ownership structure and makeup.
In that spirit, we’ve provided some how-to advice all business owners can use to get your grant entries and/or proposals together, along with lists of business grants, split into some of the most searched-for categories.
How to Find a Grant for a Small Business
A quick Google search will pull up millions of results for business grants. So many possibilities are out there that it can seem impossible to narrow down the prospects. But there are a few resources that can not only help you find the right grants for your business, but even assist in the application process, and help you identify grant opportunities that can’t be missed.
Grants.gov
Free money from the government — who wouldn’t want a piece of that? Grants.gov is the federal government’s landing page for all federal government grants across agencies. It’s a great resource for finding grant opportunities, but small businesses may be disappointed to find that many of the grants are closed to them. The site includes grants for school systems, local governments, individuals and nonprofits as well, so you have to sift through to find ones that are the right fit for you. Also, the federal grants available to small businesses have specific requirements when it comes to business size. (You can read more about how the federal government determines which businesses qualify as “small” businesses in this article.)
If it seems like receiving a business grant, specifically a government-funded one, is tricky, that’s because it can be. Here are some general guidelines and requirements that the federal government uses to determine business grant eligibility:
- Grants are not provided for starting a business.
- Grant money is not made available for a business to pay off debt or to cover operational expenses.
- State and local grants that are provided by the federal government may be awarded to organizations that assists with economic developments.
Small Business Development Centers
Once you’ve exhausted your searches for grants from federal agencies, the next stop on your list should be local and state business grants. You may be able to hit paydirt and find some of these on your own, but there’s a free, local resource funded by government grants of their own that can help you.
Small Business Development Centers are a business owner’s best friend. Local, regional, state and national offices mentor small business owners and help them understand business financing options, craft marketing strategies and connect to other local business owners (and much more — these guys do it all). One thing they can help with is navigating the grant process. Very few people have as much visibility as SBDC advisors do on the local business grant scene. It’s the one appointment you can’t afford not to make when searching for small business grants.
SCORE.org
SCORE is a nonprofit organization backed by the SBA that promotes free tools and mentorship for American small business owners. Like SBDCs, they are a free resource for entrepreneurs looking for help or expertise and they have many local experts that you can connect with. Who better to teach you how to find business grants than a business owner mentor who’s already been through the process?
Your Local Librarian
Among the many, many things local libraries provide for free or at a low cost to business owners is help finding grants. Just ask your librarian. These men and women are trained researchers with access to hundreds of databases. Why Google around on your own when you can get an expert to help you narrow the search? Libraries are often working in conjunction with local Chambers of Commerce or business organizations already and may be able to connect you with experts who know the local lay of the land and help you find business grants specific to your community.
How to Apply for a Small Business Grant
Work smart AND hard. Instead of filling out an individual grant application, do what every job applicant does and create a “resume” for your business that outlines your answers to the common questions business grant-givers ask of their applicants. While grants are technically free money, that doesn’t mean they come without hard work on your part.
Some applications will vary based on what’s required. For example, a local government grant will likely require an explanation of how your business’s growth and development will benefit local commerce directly, while a grant from a private company like FedEx may require a video essay.
Here are a few common assets you may need to provide when applying for a business grant:
- Time in Business
- Number of Employees
- Monthly Revenue
- How the Funds Will Be Used
- Your Business’s “Elevator Pitch”
- Your Employer Identification Number (EIN)
- Your Social Media Handles (LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.)
- A photo of you (and, if applicable, your partners or offices). Tip: A professional photo can go a long way, especially for companies looking to use your image across their site when announcing awards.
- A business plan. You should already have one, but if you don’t, talking to an SBDC adviser or your accountant can help you figure out the numbers, projections and stats that reflect the current health of your business and where you can go down the road.
Business Grant vs. Business Loan: What’s the Difference?
While both help you get money for your business, grants and small business loans are different beasts. The main difference between a grant and a loan is repaid. Loans require you to repay the money you borrow, a grant does not. Grants can be awarded by government departments, trusts, or corporations and given to individuals, businesses, educational institutions, or non-profits.
- Grants Are Taxable Income. The IRS considers business grants as income for tax purposes. How your business is structured and how you report income to the IRS will determine what impact this will have on you come tax time, but generally, expect a chunk of any grant money will go to Uncle Sam. You can head off this potential business grant downside by planning ahead and asking your accountant or tax professional to factor any grant money you’re awarded into your quarterly estimated payments (if applicable) or to help you estimate owed taxes and set aside those funds so you don’t have a larger-than-expected bill come tax time. Loans, however, are not considered income in the eyes of the IRS.
- You Pay Interest on Loans. Grants are free money for all intents and purposes. Even a low-interest loan, however, comes at a cost. Depending on the type of business financing (there are 44+ kinds), you could face APRs anywhere from 5% to 150%, depending on your business and personal credit scores, cash flow, years in business, collateral and other factors. (You can check your business and personal credit scores for free on Nav.com.)
- Grants Won’t Help You Build Business Credit. It’s one of the things that frustrates borrowers of all sorts — it takes credit to build credit. Building a business credit history with the major commercial credit reporting bureaus (most notably, Experian and Dun & Bradstreet), requires a tradeline of some sort. While a business grant is nothing to sneeze at — it’s free money, after all — once it runs out, you still may need to access business financing to grow and expand your business. And a business grant isn’t reported to any personal or business credit reporting agencies.
- Grants Are a Direct Competition, Loans Aren’t. There’s no guarantee you’ll win a business grant or get approved for a business loan. But loans aren’t an either/or scenario where you’re competing directly with another business for the same pot of money. If you can prove to a business lender that you’re credit-worthy and your business financials are sound, you’re likely to get approved for a business loan, whether or not another business in the community applies. Business grants, however, tend to have one or a handful of winners — supplies are limited. You have to not only be a great business, you need to be the best business per the grant parameters. That’s not an easy feat for many grants where application requirements are broad.
- Loans Can Come With Consequences. If you can’t make a payment or default on your loan, you’re going to face consequences. What those consequences are depends on the loan type and what you put on the line to get approved, but can range from repossessed equipment, a business lien or UCC filing, a damaged personal or business credit score, or bankruptcy. Generally with a business grant, if you use the money unwisely and spend it on something your business wants but maybe doesn’t need, your biggest risk is opportunity cost.
Are There Any Downsides to Business Grants?
A variety of factors make many business owners skeptical of the “free” money that business grants offer. While every grant has different application rules, terms and conditions, here are some potential downsides you should keep in mind when applying.
As mentioned above, business grant funds are taxable income for IRS purposes. The funds will still be free money for your business, but you will need to make sure you don’t spend the entire payout without planning for the added income in your tax bill.
Business grant applications take time. You’re already a time-crunched business owner wearing a million hats, do you really have time to apply for every business grant you come across? It’s a valid complaint about business grants. The likelihood of winning the grant can be small depending on the size of the contest, so you have to make your own cost/benefit analysis to figure out if you’re most precious asset — time — is worth it.
Grants may require campaigning. Many business grants require a social media component, where you campaign or share something publicly about your application. That’s not necessarily a negative if you have an active and vocal social media following, but campaigning does take additional time and some business owners may understandably not want to be as public about their search for money.

I have heard many people received the small business grant that don’t have small businesses. They lied on the application. Why would you just give $10,000 to anyone who puts their name and a number of employees on an application? I know people personally who have done this that don’t even have a job. My husband works a meat plant that his coworkers have done this and woke up to $10,000 in their banks. Now small businesses that do need the grant to stay afloat can’t get anything because the funds are exhausted. Shame on you for not having to do a more in detail application and just giving any yahoo money!
So I guess if I’m in a trucking business that repaired roads city streets and any type of road construction to help maintain our rush in traffic and keep everyone happy on the smooth roads and work a lot of night shifts just so traffic is not delayed and because of the pandemic I am going broke waiting for jobs to start there is no grants or loans to keep the road trucking business guy going??
Hi! My husband, I and a few friends are trying to find a grant to start a business. There is a place already set up for what we want to do. Just need the help of getting the property getting the tools and some supplies to get started. I don’t know how to go about doing this but we all want to do this as soon as possible.
Larissa – We provide these resource as a starting point but you’ll have to research specific grants yourself. Just to warn you – it’s hard to find grants to start a business. I suggest you get help from your local SCORE chapter or SBDC office. Use the SBA local assistance locator to find help in your area.
Hello, I had questions about 2 ideas I had about grants. The first one was about getting a grant to open a community center for the youth. I was thinking pool tables, games, food, ect.. even counselors available if needed or after school care. I’m a social worker in a rural town and there’s no place for the youth to hang out or no place for activities. There’s not even a movie theatre here. One must travel 35 miles to another town.
My second inquiry is about about opening a bakery/sandwich/snack shop. All homemade items and pick up. I would need a few kitchen items. I already have a building and am serv safe certified. What grants could I look into for this?
Shaundra – We’ve listed these resources as places you may look to for grants but you’ll need to do the research yourself in terms of what may be available to you. Most grants don’t fund ideas however. Since you’re still in the inquiry phase I recommend you get from your local SCORE chapter or SBDC office. Use the SBA local assistance locator to find help in your area.

I actually started my business in support of victims of domestic violence and abuse called Bold Expression LLC. It’s a womens fashion accessories store that promotes finding your self worth and then owning that by providing the tools needed to be free to create boundaries, be who you are, and expressing that in your style with respect for your self and those around you. I provide affordable tip tier quality make up, jewelry, makeup, and all things that accessorize personality. My hope is to use the funds from sales to fund my own shelter and program creating support for those who understand that there is nothing normal about domestic violence and want to break the cycle for themselves ending the cycle for their children by retraining our brains to shift the thought process
Hello im michael and I have actually already started doing home remodeling work but I would like to know if there is a grant that would help me get my business going better so im not having to struggle between start and finish of each job
thank=
Michael,
Each business grant has different requirements but I think it will be challenging to find one for the situation you are describing. I think you’d be better off looking for financing sources to help improve cash flow. Vendor accounts are one, and business credit cards are another you may want to consider. Feel free to reach out to Nav’s Credit & Lending Team at 844-636-2445 to go over your options.
My Lisa Pugh just getting started with my business starting my sports camp for inner city girls age 9yrs to 16yrs my Grant’s are needed to help on sports equipment that is highly needed in our community were our youths need structure and guidance with being active and learning discipline.
Mike,
talk to your local banks about lines of credit. also, see if your area has a local SCORE.org chapter, or a SBDC (small business development center), or your local chamber of commerce. all these provide free business help/guidance. Lastly, make sure you know how to properly bid/quote jobs as you don’t want to be too low where you lose money should a job take longer or involve more than you thought it would.
Great article

Is this for real or this a scam???
This article was really informative for start-up funding and grant qualifications.
i love the article and legwork you did. After many years of many grants and of doing everything perfectly right and answering every grant question to a tee with a small amount of innovation statements, i only secured 2. I still find there a a select few who always get the grant. its like a secret society of known universities, professor names, agencies, and what seems like a secret lingo. Many if us newbies don’t even bother anymore and this is coming from someone who was often designated as the PI.
I have managed to buy a small piece of land I am hoping to turn into a haven for bees and butterflies making welsh honey. I need help with financing for plants etc beehives and cultivation of the land . are there any grants for this kind of business please

I also encourage you to look into financing sources as that may be the best route for your new business. Check out: Where’s the Money? The Top Ten Sources for Financing and How to Qualify

Sidney,
It’s impossible for us to say what grants may be available for your specific business, but hopefully the resources we outlined in this article will give you a starting point for your research. I also recommend you take full advantage of the resources available through SCORE and SBDCs. Use the SBA local assistance locator to find free help in your area.

Would you, by chance, happen to know of any grants that would apply to a small trailer parts and service store? There are no facilities in my area that cater to specifically to small trailers. I already have my EIN, however I don’t have the facilities or the money for inventory. I am looking for around $5000 to start. I used to work for a trailer sales and service as a parts associate, and before that a small trailer mechanic, however 99% of their business was catered to tractor trailers. I couldn’t tell you how many people I had to turn away because they needed parts immediately and couldn’t wait for parts to be special ordered. This also creates a financial burden on small farmers in the area as they would also have to pay for shipping on special ordered parts as well as prepay for ordered parts that most any trailer parts supplier should have on the shelf. I would also cater to marine and RV trailers as well since I’m not that far from the coast, surrounded by lakes, and not far from a major interstate highway. I would also like to start an outreach program in trailer maintenance and basic mechanics for 4H and FFA as knowledge, however limited, in this area are important to our future farmers and ranchers.
I have a couple of suggestions for you. First, I’d suggest you meet with your local SBDC and/or SCORE chapter to get free help getting your business off the ground. Use the SBA local assistance locator to find help in your area.
Secondly, a grant may not be the only way to go. You may be able to get a microloan to purchase what you need to get started, for example, or even utilize a small business credit card. Get a free Nav account here to help you understand financing options.
Do you happen to know if any of the Grants would apply to a Woman owned Residential Review Appraisal Company? I need approximately $5,000-6,000 to obtain certifications in the additional states I am not currently certified in. Right now I am the only employee, but I do plan to
Andrea,
The truth is you won’t know without reading the guidelines and applying to the ones that seem right for you. Three suggestions:
1. Get help from your local SCORE chapter or SBDC office. Use the SBA local assistance locator to find help in your area. They may be tied into local funding sources.
2. Read our article on how to get business grants:
