About This Grant

Every month, we give one $500 grant to a business owner in the US to invest in their existing business. No strings attached. No equity required.

Grant recipients are also eligible to receive an additional end-of-year grant of $2,500.

The Freed Fellowship helps small business owners get the resources, mentorship, and community they need to build successful companies that make an impact.

How You Can Use the Funds

  • Grant funds can be used for any business-related expenses as the recipients see fit. This is what we mean by no-strings-attached. The freed fellowship do not require reporting, limit what the funds can be used for, or take equity.
  • Help spread the word by sharing news of your selection on social media and be an active member in our community.
  • You'll get a transformative 60-minute strategy session with the Freed Founding Team (valued at $1000).
  • As a Freed Fellow, will be invited to share your journey on our Freed Stories Podcast. This is an opportunity to get exposure for your business that will live on for years.
  • You will receive one-year of mentorship in our vibrant online community for entrepreneurs and business owners.
  • You will automatically be considered for an additional $2,500 grant at the end of the year.

Documents Required

  • Answer a few simple questions online about your business and complete the application in just a few minutes.
  • There is a $19 nonrefundable application fee.

Eligibility Requirements

  • Any micro or small business owner in the US is eligible. We especially encourage women, minorities and others considered underrepresented or overlooked to apply.
