hi it's tina here welcome back to this channel thank you so much for being here if you've already subscribed thank you so much if you have not subscribed to this channel i would just greatly appreciate that subscription it really helps this channel it helps the the google analytics get this video to more people to see as well and again i just really greatly appreciate that subscription if you do find this video useful helpful you liked it please do click on the like button at some point during the video i greatly appreciate that as well this particular video here is going to be an update of grants that i have applied for grants that i have just now come across that are new to me posting on this channel as well as some of the other grants i've already covered but are still available for you to apply for so again these are not grants for new companies that are just being developed these are grants that are basically um as a result of covid 19. these grants are either ones that people have um people or companies have put out based on getting donations and companies putting money into it and so forth as well as many of the states now are coming out with their own grants for small businesses because they have gotten funding from the federal government the cares act that came out you know back earlier this year and these funds are trickling down it's it's been at the federal level and they've um they've given monies to the states and the states now are distributing those funds through grants so again i'm seeing a lot more um money coming through the states now as well there's a few tips that i want to talk about real quick as well so if you're applying for these grants please make sure that one you're very careful who is helping you i'm seeing this a lot where they're saying hold this guy help me and here's his number or here's his instagram handle all these things and please please please be so careful who you're sharing your financial information with make sure that the website looks legit and that you are not just trusting anyone to handle your application and your financial information you want to make sure that you are the one filling out these grant applications and that you are handling your own financial documents um it's so unfortunate but i just want everyone to be safe and not to get ripped off by these scammers so number one is if people are just saying saying give me your email and i'll hook you up with some guy who can get you this grant please please please be so careful with that next is uh be aware that the most of the grants i'm seeing that you get awarded they are likely going to make your name public or your business name public so just be aware and comfortable with that that likely you're going to be on some list you're probably going to be on their website somewhere publicly available that you are you had received that grant next is to make sure that you are keeping track of all of the documents um keeping track of all of the monies that you were given and where those monies went because again once you receive these grants oftentimes if not always they're going to want to see where you spent the money so you're going to want to keep a good um track of that so that when the time comes that you um have that information readily available to give them those documents okay so let's dive in real quick here and look at what's going on so i've been keeping a list um a rolling list of the grants that i've been looking into and all of this will be in the um description box below this video so that you can easily pop into all of these links and and see these sites so you don't have to be trying to you know look at these tiny little urls and all that stuff it'll be in the description below so that you can um easily click on these links and get to them um as i just said about being careful um if if you are uncomfortable with clicking on these links that's fine it's always good to be careful um i'm going to tell you the names of the grants so then you can also if you'd like to do your own search with the name then you can obviously then find the links that way as well so the first one is the eidl sba grant and most people have already heard about this it came out early this year and um for many people it was a quick um apply and get the cash apply and get the grant um apply and get the loans whatever but for many of us especially i think some of us sole proprietors we ended up in the bucket of unverifiable information denial and so after i got that i did send in a ton of documents including a 4506 t form however i had recently then got an email from them stating i didn't send in the right version of the form which okay whatever so this link that i'm sharing is the version of the form that they actually sent me and it looks like this this is the pdf they sent me and it already has some things filled in like 5a says the small business admin they checked the box over in six c for record of account and then they had already filled in the years as well now if you don't file your taxes on a yearly basis a calendar yearly basis and you might file your taxes ending in say year and june then these dates are going to be different for you because this is based on your year end and then of course signing and dating it so um again i'm just wanting to show you that if you are in the bucket as many of us are for unverifiable information that this form is something that they're looking for and it has to be this version there's um either version september 2018 or march 2019. this is the link that they sent me and then this here is the instruction so the link to the instructions so i'm sharing that with you in case you're in the same bucket and you're still going through the cycle of trying to actually have qualified for the grant and loan i am still just going through the process because from what i was told they had run out of grant funds for new applicants so i don't know if i finally get approved if i'd ever see the grant or i would just get the loan but again i'm just gonna go ahead and keep going through the process for that reason as well as if not when but if a another act gets passed and monies go into this program then this could also be um a possibility that i'd see the funds that way so again i just want to go ahead and stay in the queue in case that happens another grant i applied for was called the lisk lisc lowe's grant and i believe that that was round six and i don't think they're having around seven and in this application they said if you make it to the next ro the next as a finalist for the grant then you'd be notified this was back in september and i never heard anything i never heard i was a finalist i never heard that i was not a finalist so i'm kind of curious if you had heard anything if you applied for this as well what kind of feedback you were given i find it really interesting that they didn't at least acknowledge the people that were denied but also this site the lisc itself continues to run more grants and so it's always or it's a good suggestion of mine to get on their mailing list because they will let you know when more grants become available next grant that i had applied for was called were all in wisconsin and this was a i think a couple months ago already and that was now considered round one they're going to be issuing a round two and anyone who applied for round one is still eligible for round two so i'm going to talk more about that in a second but i stopped here because uh or i added this here just to let you know and to kind of um make a note that again these grants are going to likely want to know where the funds were um you what the funds were used for and maybe some documentation so please watch your emails and respond to them when they're asking you for those things um i can't see that they would ever like ask for the funds back if you don't respond to them but you know you're you're running that risk so i would definitely recommend that any time they're asking you for updates do update them the we are all in wisconsin small business grant did send out um requesting some updates and the um the little questionnaire they had was extremely short so don't hesitate because you think oh this is gonna take me forever um just jump in there and at least attempt to answer all the questions that they have and then if you need time for more documentation documentation you know of course then uh get that together and then answer those emails but for this one specifically the very first um questionnaire that they've sent out so far has been extremely simple so again don't be nervous just jump in there and get those things taken care of so let's dive into some of the new ones i've run across and again lisk as i had mentioned before they're running a new one and it's going to open october 26th so this one is called the rural relief small business grants and it's for any small business that is considered in a rural area okay population of 50 000 people is not that tiny of a city so do a little google search check to see how many people are in your city town village what have you and then um you can pop into the faqs and more grant information to apply to see if you qualify but again they're running it opening october 26th we have time it's starting october 26th and will run through november 2nd now as you can see here there's going to be more than one round of this so again um this is gonna be nice because there's more than one round and if you miss one you can always jump into the next but um i'll have the links all in the description below so that you can check this out again i would highly suggest that you um look into this further if you even if you kind of think you're in a big city it might not be as big as you think given the population of 50 000 people and again it's um they'll tell you a little bit more like if it's mobile it's it's with the address that you're that you're storing the vehicle or it's probably the address that you consider to be your like home base or something like that and it's going to be in rounds so you can find out more from this link or by searching lisc rural relief small business grants and i have the link for you here and this will start october 26th so it you can't apply for it right this minute but um these dates are going to come up quick another new one is the business for all hello alice so this had ended in september they're opening it up again and the new deadline is november 10th so this is what they call a the or they noted as the bfa grant the business for all okay and i'm having an issue getting to this link okay so here's the terms and conditions and it basically is telling you all about the grant and the eligibility but i pointed out that it was the bfa because when you look here the contest period says november 10th and it's not the covid 19 grant which had already ended so that's why i specified that it was the bfa grant and then it just tells you about how you can enter and all of the other specifications about it and of course there's the button for apply for a grant all right and next is all of these new states that have come up recently so new ones are delaware indiana nevada new york tennessee and again wisconsin and then other ones that i've already come across that are still open are in california colorado illinois kansas and texas as well as a few other ones that are not located in specific states so for the delaware one you can search d e relief grants round one is done round two is now open there is no end date given it just says when the money runs out that's when they're closing it out so if you're in delaware i would recommend that you apply for this as fast as possible because you just don't know when the money is going to run out so this is what the site looks like and again you can just search the delaware de relief grants the url i have is business.delaware.gov backslash relief the next one is back on track indiana small business restart fund so again back on track indiana small business restart fund the deadline for marion county is november 1st the deadline for anywhere else in indiana outside of marion county is december 1st or until the money is exhausted so again these could end sooner if they have a ton of applications come through and they qualify and they the the funds go out the deadlines could end sooner or it could actually run later if they still don't have all those funds um given out uh have enough company or businesses that have applied so again this this link will give you the um more details about the grant itself grants will be issued up to ten thousand dollars per company and issued in the order in which applications are received until the funding is exhausted so you must be registered in indiana you must have less than 50 employees as of the end of last year had less than 5 million in revenue been profitable last year and businesses must demonstrate a monthly revenue loss of at least 40 percent compared to pre-covered um the program deadlines again are the november 1st and then the december 1st but and or until funds are exhausted and then the button for the application so if you're in indiana you'll want to check that out for more information the next one is in nevada so nevada is the pandemic emergency technical support grant pets grant so you can search pandemic emergency technical support p-e-t-s grant in nevada this one opens in a couple of days october 19th and it'll close out november 2nd so you have the there's a news article that i found and you can look at the news article if you wish and then also here's what the site is going to look like the pandemic emergency technical support and um the application starts um october 19th and so then once it opens then there'll be a button to where you can apply there's also some video tutorials so you could watch that in advance just so that you kind of get an idea of what you're going to need when you apply now i also have another link for nevada and this i believe is just a more um general link that will give you any of the grants that are available so there's an actor's fund a gen youth federal grants that are available and just a plethora of information and other grants that you might find useful so henderson recovery grant round two opens the tenth it's ongoing local opportunities so there's just a plethora of other ones that you might be interested in again if you're in nevada new york grant information so um the one that i found recently was called erie county back to business grant program so again erie county and this is the link here and so the site looks like this erie county back to business grant program and you can apply now and you can read all of this extra information to see if you would be eligible for that grant and then see the full grant program terms you can click on that how can you spend the money it's going to let you know how you can spend the money and there's an apply now button so that's only in erie county new york however there are a couple other links here that i've shared and these are a little bit more general again grants that are available for new york residents new york small businesses so you've got the economic recovery and covid19 loans for small businesses and so these are some loan funds they talk about the sba ppp and all that good stuff so it's just a good reference if you're looking for assistance in new york and then there's also this link here again the empire state development website guidance and information for new yorkers businesses related to covid and they've got some guidance here and some economic recovery and covered loans and assistance just some other information that you might find useful but again this other one here is the erie county grant information next state is tennessee it's called the tennessee supplemental employer recovery grant program s-e-r-g and the deadline for this is december 29th or until funds are depleted so again it could run past december 19th if not enough people apply and use up the funds or it could go quick so i would recommend if you're in tennessee and you want to apply for this grant look into it and apply sooner rather than later in case the funds run out quicker than the december deadline it says business owners ca
use the calculator to determine their estimated benefit awards are capped at thirty thousand dollars however business is located in low to moderate income census tracks uh opportunity zones or promised loans will receive an additional 500 added to the maximum allowable expenses so it sounds like it's a pretty nice grant and the link to apply is right here so again they're going to ask you for quite a bit of information so if you're applying for a lot of grants i would highly suggest you keep all that information in one place you know likely on your computer or whatever in a folder so that you can easily keep referring back to all of those things and making sure that um all of your documents that you are sending out or attaching to these applications what have you that they're all labeled really well as well so what they are your name business name what have you so that when they look quickly at that lane that that add-on whether it's a pdf or whatever that they can quickly see who what it is and who it belongs to so again that's tennessee's so if you're in tennessee you can look up the tennessee supplemental employer recovery grant program okay so the last of the new ones that i've come across is in wisconsin it's the we're all in wisconsin small business grant and this is gonna be round two and it's gonna open up monday on the 19th and even if you already got received round one funds you can apply for round two so don't hesitate or um if you're worried about that or you're not sure about that it's it states it in here that if you did receive round one you can still apply for round two and again i'm trying to see if there's anything very pertinent that i should point out other than it ends november 2nd and it says um it is not on a first come first serve so they are reviewing the the applications as they come in and they and then as sorry i'm trying to hurry as fast as i can because some people don't like that these videos are taking a long time but this is a lot of information to go through so i'm trying to keep it brief but i'm also trying to give you as much detail as possible businesses that received funds under the first round of we're all in as well as the ethnic minority emergency grant are also eligible for the second round so again you can apply again priority will be given to businesses that have not previously received the funds and um they also give preferences to ethnically diverse ownership and those hardest hit so a lot of these grants are like that they're for small businesses and they are um taking into account if you're woman owned minority owned and just other things like that they're taking those also into account and many of the grants as far as who gets picked first to get the to be a recipient so just keep that in mind as well and another thing to keep in mind is that some of them the some of these grants you have to have at least two employees so it eliminates anyone who's a sole proprietor if they um if one of the rules is you have to have at least two employees um then if you're applying if you're a business of one then you don't qualify but other of these loans like that we're all in wisconsin you can be a sole proprietor you can be a business of one and still receive these grants so don't let that deter you to apply um if you do qualify just something to look out for okay these are ones that i've already covered in prior videos but i'm going to let you know just because they are still available and if you hadn't heard of it before you can apply so there is one called central san diego black chamber of commerce and right now it looks like they are trying to receive more funds get more donations so at some point they are going to do a grant as far as what i can read on their site but it doesn't look like they've raised the million dollars yet again this would be something i would just go ahead and if you're in that area and you're looking for grants to keep an eye on this because at some point it looks like they're going to do a grant offer grants and so this would be a great one to keep an eye on for again it looks like they're um attempting to raise a million dollars and then do the grant central san diego black chamber of commerce okay and there's a news article here if you'd like to read it you can also email them um so that's some great information there the next one is the state of colorado it's called energize colorado gap fund grant and loan opportunity so there's a grant that's up to fifteen thousand and then a loan up to twenty thousand dollars round one has closed but round two opened october 5th and the deadline is october 26th so you still have time to apply for this gap fund and again if you don't want to click on the links i have i understand just search colorado energize colorado gap fund round two applications are open until the 26th and here's the big button to apply now and of course they have tons of other information so you can find out whether or not you qualify to apply illinois covid grants there is an article here that you can read and then as well as here is the application now it says that it's on a rolling basis so here we go again there's no deadline per se they're just going to keep pumping out these funds until they run out of money so if you're in illinois and you want to apply for this i would do it sooner rather than later business interruption grants program big and they have applications in english and spanish and then there's a ton more information that you can read about the applications so they have application questions checklist forms in english and spanish guidance and technical assistance just just a plethora of information so again if you're in illinois you're a small business and you're looking for a grant i would check this one out the business interruption grants program out of the illinois department of commerce next is kansas topeka kansas and again i've got an article here you could read if you'd like and then the site itself it's for low to moderate income women owned and or minority owned are given a preference and the grants are up to twenty thousand dollars each so you're not going to automatically get the twenty thousand dollars if it says up to that means that they determine based on your business and your needs and where you're located and all of those things then the maximum that your your grant would be is twenty thousand dollars it started october first and they're going to be accepted continuously until the funds have depleted again we're hearing this a lot until funds are depleted so again there's no deadline per se so the sooner you get your application in the better and again you can just search topeka.org and then small business grant so like i had talked about a business of one employed between 1 and 25 persons so employed one person is if you are a sole proprietor you employ yourself that's it so that's one of the things that i would highly suggest you look at if you are a sole proprietor you may not a qualify for some grants if it says two or more but as you see this one says 1-25 so then um grant funds can be put towards the following expenses and they give you a list of types of things that you can spend the money on and the application so you can see then there's your button to apply and i'm sure that they have much much more information if you want to read through it in the faq so again this is for topeka and this is the grant program that they're running in topeka kansas okay so texas is the last state on my list right now and there is a um the various texas locations for the lyft fund so again you can search texas lift fund l-i-f-t and they have a website here that just goes into a plethora of things and some of these have already ended some of these come into um second and third rounds so if you're in this location it's ended i would keep an eye on it do some more searching because like i said they might end up with around two or around three and then um they'll come back open the el paso texas deadline is october 16th so that's actually today at 5 p.m on mountain time so i'm really sorry if this is coming to you this late this is probably the only one i've got that's like a really okay today is the deadline but again if you're in el paso um this is the city of el paso small business recovery grant program and um they actually updated it today is um application deadline is rolling into funds are exhausted on or before november 30th so there you go now they're saying um they're extending the deadline as of today and now you can apply until november 30th or until um funds are exhausted so it's it's incredible how these things just keep changing so again um even if there's one that has come it looks like you missed the deadline check because they might extend the deadlines so for independent contractors and sole proprietors that's if you're a business of one you would apply here and then the grant awards are up to twenty five thousand dollars um grant documentation is so it's telling you all the things you're gonna need how to apply and all of that good stuff and so there's a nice long checklist and again it said up here if you're uh a sole proprietor to apply it at this little tab here as opposed to down here this button here so just pay attention to that but i'm going to add this little snippet of information here bear with me one second because i want to update my paper or my form my document and then there is the purlind grant program and that one is going to end the 26th so you've got your city of purlin small business recovery uh grant program and that's again part of the lyft fund and you can find out more information about this fund as well it tells you about the application process the deadlines and all of that good stuff and the button to apply and again that one is the perland grant program out of texas now here's just a few little um ones that i've talked about um before but if you go to ifundwomen.com slash woc there's a plethora of information for women of color as they say so it's the i fund women of color funding grants crowdfunding coaching and connections and there's the link here if you're interested in popping over to that site and looking at the plethora of other information that they provide and the programs that they have i've also talked about tic tac and facebook and i know that these can be a bit controversial but i'm sharing it because if you want to know about it at least you know about it so for tic toc they have the this ads program it's called tick tock back to business program and they offer um 300 of ad spend money for their platform i um played around with this and they did not i did not have to give any financial documents i didn't have to give them any credit card information i did not have to put any money into ads myself um i just had the 300 um ad um grant as i guess you'd put it or and that money was available to use towards ad spend um it wasn't an actual monetary gain like monetary monies put into my bank account it was just um on the platform so just to be aware of that there they kind of make it seem like you need to match it dollar for dollar which they do have a program for as well but for this program it was just like the 300 um granted an ad spend um so i just want to kind of put that out there because it kind of makes you feel like you're you have to put a credit card in or you have to put your own ad money spend in there and you don't so just to know that um so that you can feel comfortable in knowing that you should not have to actually um spend any of your own monies to use that grant the facebook small business grants program has um eliminated many countries including now the usa is excluded canada's excluded colombia was excluded and now there i think there's a few more countries that have now been excluded from the site it says um that it's been exhausted or whatever terminology they use but um if you are located in other countries outside the u.s canada colombia and a few others there may be grants that you can tap into this may not be monetary it may just be um grant ad spend grants but again if you are located outside of um the us and canada you can pop in here and basically if you scroll down it has this little how do i apply and then you can look at certain countries and it'll say sorry no longer accepting applications or maybe there might be uh one where it says learn more and then you would click here so if you're outside the united states and canada you can pop into this little thing and see if they offer it in the country where you are located but i think this keeps changing so i'm not gonna try to give you a long list of which countries it is it's hard to say it they i think that they're trying to um partner up with other countries to um to offer some of these so again it's just something you can pop into if you're interested facebook for business they are um sometimes offering um certain grants and so it's something you can just check into okay so that was a long arduous list i hope that some of this at least if not all of it you found useful um i hope that um you're finding the grants that you need based on where you're located there is an article here that i'll share again it talks a little bit about some extra tips for a small business um making it through kovid and um you might find that useful another tip is to use google search as well as google alerts that you can set up so if you go to google.com forward slash alerts you can set it up so you could um do small business and then wherever you're located and it'll send you alerts when those trigger words come up in postings on the internet and it would kind of help you so you're not always searching for grants in your location but it'll alert you when when postings come up of grants in your location or say um you are specific type of industry um things like that then you can use those keywords to do a google alerts and have google just email you when um a list of whatever has popped up on the internet based on your search again i hadn't heard anything new about the eidl except for twice now they've asked me to resend the 4506 form which i've done and then um the last thing is just to ask you um if you would um subscribe to this channel and if you did find this video useful give me a thumbs up a like and that's always appreciated um this whole document again will be added to the description below this video as well as you can see here some of these have ended but again if you're in these locations um there might be round more rounds coming available so it's always good idea to keep those um sort of in your bookmarks or what have you just in case so wow take a breath thank you so much for watching this video i hope that you find the grants and the other support that you need during this pandemic i
