WBFO's Emyle Watkins reports on the Restaurant Revitalization grant program.
“The challenge has been, and the frustration for the entrepreneurs, is the short timeline to, in effect, compete to secure these dollars, this funding. It's difficult, and the programs ultimately run out of money," said Susan McCartney.
McCartney works with business owners at no cost to them, to create the document packages needed to apply to these programs.
While the application is not yet available, McCartney urges people not to wait until it is available to start gathering their application materials.
Restaurants who want to know more about this funding and how to apply can get ahead by contacting the small business development center or attending a virtual webinar hosted by the center on April 19.
