Businesses and nonprofit organizations are invited to this workshop to learn more about how you can apply for grants. The presentation is facilitated by Anamaria Rocha of Iman Consulting.
- Participants will review the basics of what a grant is and how to prepare to apply for grants.
- You'll walk away with information on where to find and apply for funding locally and at the state level as well as the recommended documentation to have up-to-date for grant applications.
Members of the Chamber's Minority Business Councils have identified some gaps and challenges for small business owners - and this business series addresses those needs, providing education, resources and information. All are welcome to attend.
