In response to the economic impact of the COVID-19, the State of Michigan has allocated $100 million of CARES Act funding to implement the Michigan Small Business Restart Program to support the needs of Michigan Businesses directly impacted by COVID-19. The Program will provide grant funding to eligible businesses and nonprofits that have realized a significant financial hardship due to the COVID-19 emergency.
15 Local Economic Development Organizations (EDOs) covering all 83 counties in Michigan will be accepting, reviewing and approving submitted applications from businesses located in the counties they serve. For the list of local EDOs, please visit: https://www.michiganbusiness.org/restart/.
Working with MEDC, the local EDOs will provide grants up to $20,000 to eligible small businesses and nonprofits. Grant funding can be used for working capital to support payroll expenses, rent, mortgage payments, utility expenses or other similar expenses incurred between March 1, 2020 and December 30, 2020.
