End-of-Year Grant & Funding Opportunities
U.S. Black Chambers, Inc. (USBC) is committed to working with corporations, partners, government agencies, and other organizations to provide funding avenues to Black businesses. Capital access remains the most important factor limiting the establishment, expansion, and growth of Black-owned businesses. As one of our key pillars, the USBC works with financial institutions, particularly Black-owned institutions, to create avenues by which Black businesses can gain greater access to credit, capital, and other financial instruments. Since the pandemic, grant funding has become another vehicle to capital access and been important in keeping small businesses moving forward, supporting needs like payroll, equipment, lease payments, marketing, etc.

From time-to-time, USBC will share information about programs, presented by us and others, that highlight available grant funding that we discover in the market and financing avenues through our partnerships. We do not guarantee that all applications submitted will be approved; this is meant to serve as shared information to help you seek capital that you may need for your business. Don’t forget to attend our webinar series to help in preparing you to seek capital, understand what lenders need, manage your cash flow, prepare your pitch, and many, many more. Feel free to reach out to us at programs@usblackchambers.org or visit our chambers at www.usbcnavigators.org for information from the USBC Community Navigator Pilot Program.
