As many small businesses struggle to remain open, a grant program in the District will be awarding thousands of dollars to help support 21 businesses in wards 7 and 8.
The local businesses have been selected to receive over $200,000 through D.C.’s Microbusiness Dream Grants Program.
“We support the local businesses that support and invest in our communities and in our residents,” said Mayor Muriel Bowser in a statement.
Businesses that will receive $10,000 grants include District Art and Crafts, Lee’s Barbershop and Healthy Home Pediatrics.
The grants support businesses with fewer than five full-time employees in growing and achieving sustainability, and also provides technical assistance and training.
