Main Street America is thrilled to announce the Services That Back Us grant program, in
partnership with American Express, as part of its Backing Small efforts. This program will support U.S. small businesses in the personal service
industry that have been deeply affected by the pandemic. Applications are now open.
The program will provide 75 U.S. personal service industry small businesses in
older or historic commercial districts across the country with a $5,000 grant.
Funds can be used towards critical needs such as physical and digital
improvements, new equipment, technology, and training to support their
financial recovery and growth.
This grant program is the latest effort in American Express and Main Street
America’s year-round “Inclusive Backing” initiative, which provides financial
support and educational resources to businesses that have been
disproportionately impacted by the pandemic, with preference given to
businesses owned by underrepresented groups, including People of Color, members
of the LGBTQIA+ community, people with disabilities, veterans, and women. Reference
