Massachusetts Growth Capital Corporation (MGCC) is administering the Small Business Grants program, with $50.8 million available. Grant awards range between $25,000 and $75,000. Eligibility criteria and applications are available here.
 
As part of this grant program, preference is given to small businesses whose owners are women, minorities, veterans, members of other underrepresented groups, or focused on serving the Gateway Cities of Massachusetts, who have been unable to open and those most adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Preference is also given to applicants that have not been able to receive aid from other federal programs, including PPP and other relief related to COVID-19.
 
The program has two distinct funding “doors” based on business size, with different eligibility criteria, which is available online. Applicants must review the information to determine which program to apply for.

Maybe you are one of those people who keep everything super organized except for the bedroom. Or maybe you are one of those people whose lives thrive on organized chaos, except in the kitchen. Everyone has their own home habits,but all of thatchanges when the holidays come around.The holidays have a way of putting your home on display for all to see. So why not take advantage of it?
