Does the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) offer grants for small business startup?
SBA’s grant programs generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments in an effort to enhance small business technical and financial assistance. However, SBA sponsors a variety of counseling, training and information services including the Service Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE), Business Information Centers (BICs), Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs) and Women’s Business Centers (WBCs).
