As reopening orders slowly come into effect across state lines, businesses continue to face financial strains until some form of normalcy exists. Better Business Bureau Serving the Pacific Southwest (BBB) has awarded an additional $21,500 through its Main St. Matters Grant Program to businesses experiencing hardship, bringing the total to over $100k granted since its inception.

As hundreds of applications go through the review process, the devastating impact of the pandemic weighs heavy on the heart. Even the smallest wins through the BBB Main St. Matters Grant Program allows light to shine at the end of the tunnel.

Awardees for this round of funding have been selected in part, for the exemplary strides they’ve made in their communities. Recipients express the gratitude and impact it has made for their business and appreciation for being selected.

“Thank you to all the donors of the grant program and to the staff of BBB who put this all together. I am grateful beyond words and feel that a good amount of weight has been lifted from my shoulders. If I can pay this forward by assisting or encouraging other businesses, I would be happy to do so.” – Maricopa County Awardee
