Good afternoon all,

The Community Foundation of Abilene has agreed to administer small business relief grants, made available to our city through CDBG-CV funds. Do any of my peers have experience in this world, and would you be willing to share info/best practices? I'm happy to connect via phone or zoom.

Thanks,

Michelle Parrish

Grant Director

Community Foundation of Abilene

    Hello Michelle,

    The Pasadena Community Foundation is also helping administer a CDBG-CV small business grant program. We are collecting information and have some insights we can share. Feel free to call or email me directly.

    I am really interested in this! We offered a low interest low program and partnered with a credit union. Here is a link to the info on our website
