Empowering Latino Small Businesses
Dear Colegas,
In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, Google.org announced a $3M grant to Hispanics in Philanthropy’s PowerUp Fund! This grant program comes at a time when Latino businesses are struggling to recover from the impact of the economic shutdown spurred by the pandemic.
Fortunately for our community, Google.org understands that our businesses don’t just need to recover — they need to grow.
To this end, the PowerUp Fund has partnered with Ureeka—a community built to support and grow underrepresented small businesses. The grants that the PowerUp Fund is offering include both capital and coaching to help Latinx small businesses grow for the long-term.
Applications for this $5,000 grant + mentoring program must be submitted by October 14. If you’re a Latinx small business owner in California, Texas or New York APPLY NOW.
