Does the SBA offer grants to small businesses?
The SBA does not grant funds for starting or expanding a business, but it does offer a variety of loan programs via intermediaries and participating lenders. Generally, the SBA’s grant programs fund non-profits such as educational or intermediary lending organizations to provide technical or financial assistance to small businesses. You can find some information on sources of grants from non-SBA sources on the SBA website at www.sba.gov.
