CAN YOU GET THIS?
YOUR REAL ODDS
No data is published on number of winners or selection rate.
The program is rolling with no stated deadline, which means competition depends on application volume at any given time. The geographic and revenue restrictions narrow the eligible pool significantly.
WHAT IT TAKES
Check eligibility: revenue, employees, location, LMI area, licenses — 30 minutes
Record a 3-minute video covering your background, community mission, and how you'd use the funds — 1-2 hours
Complete the online application with business info, TIN, and any supporting documents — 1-2 hours
WORTH KNOWING
The video is the only narrative component of the application — the foundation explicitly says phone camera quality is fine, so focus your energy on clearly explaining community impact and a specific use of funds rather than production quality.
