Empowering Montgomery's Small Business Ecosystem with the MGM S.E.E.D. Grant Fund
The City of Montgomery is dedicated to fostering a community where everyone has the opportunity to live, learn, and earn. Central to this vision is the creation of a robust small business ecosystem, an essential component for thriving entrepreneurship. This ecosystem comprises the conditions and supports necessary for entrepreneurs to launch, expand, and sustain their businesses, especially in the face of growth challenges and economic shocks.
The MGM S.E.E.D. Grant Fund, a grassroots initiative designed to empower and uplift small and minority-owned businesses within our local communities. This community-driven fund pools donations from individuals, businesses, and local organizations, directly investing in the growth and sustainability of entrepreneurs. The fund provides not only financial assistance but also essential resources such as mentorship, networking opportunities, and business development training to ensure the long-term success of its beneficiaries.
The primary focus of the MGM S.E.E.D. Grant Fund is to create a more inclusive economy by addressing the unique challenges faced by small business owners, such as access to capital, market exposure, and equitable opportunities.
