Applications are now open for the broader round of the 2025 Backing Small Businesses grant program, supported by American Express. This nationwide initiative will award 400 grants of $10,000 to help locally significant small businesses overcome economic hardship, invest in growth, and make a meaningful impact in their communities.
Now in its fourth year, the Backing Small Businesses grant program is part of American Express’ broader “Backing Small Businesses” work to equip small businesses with the resources to grow and innovate today, prepare for tomorrow, and overcome challenges big and small.
