Murfreesboro, TN - Hello Alice, in partnership with GEN, the Small Business Growth Fund, invites applications from small businesses in need of capital to apply and possibly receive help. 

Grants of up to $25,000, provided by Mastercard, will be awarded to help small businesses accelerate their growth and achieve their goals in 2023. Applicants must commit to their customers and community and have a clear plan for how the funds will help them achieve a significant growth milestone in 2023.

To be eligible, applicants must be a for-profit business with less than $1 million in 2021 gross annual revenue. 

At the start of 2021, Hello Alice awarded $5,000 grants to 50-entrepreneurs from “underrepresented communities.” 86% Of those businesses were owned by persons of color, 72% were owned by a woman and 20% were affiliated with the military. The common thread that all 50 of the businesses had… IMPACT. Each of the 50-businesses that received a grant prospered in a way that positively helped the community locally.
