U.S. Chamber Foundation Launches Fund to Support the Small Business Community 

UPDATE: Applications Have Closed – Due to overwhelming interest in this grant program, the U.S. Chamber’s Save Small Business Fund has reached its capacity and the U.S. Chamber is not accepting new applicants at this time. 

The U.S. Chamber launched its Save Small Business Initiative to address the immediate needs of the small business community, mitigate closures and job losses, and mobilize support for long-term recovery in the wake of the economic destruction of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

In addition to a call to action for the larger business community and government to help small businesses, the four-part campaign includes supplemental financial assistance, advocacy, resources, webinars and guides, and research. 

The U.S. Chamber Foundation is supporting the supplemental financial assistance by launching their Save Small Business Fund. Funded by contributions from corporate and philanthropic partners, the U.S. Chamber Foundation will be providing $5,000 supplemental grants to small employers in economically vulnerable communities. 

Applications for the Save Small Business Grant Fund will open this Monday, April 20, 2020, at 3 p.m. ET. There are several eligibility requirements which can be found here. For more information on the Save Small Business Grant Fund including qualifications, the application process and FAQs, please click here
