That Remove Barriers—and Spark Momentum

CORE’s Microgrant Program provides small, fast, high-impact grants to help entrepreneurs overcome the early obstacles that stall business growth. These funds support real needs that create real progress—equipment, certifications, marketing, legal help, product development, or anything that meaningfully accelerates momentum.

How It Works

  • Applications reviewed monthly

  • Prioritized based on impact, readiness, and demonstrated need

  • Grants can be paired with CORE’s mentorship, roundtables, and advisory support

Microgrants are one of the ways CORE removes barriers so more founders can build, grow, and stay in our community.
