Facebook Small Business Grants Program

Los Angeles-area small businesses are now able to apply for Facebook’s Small Business Grants Program. This initiative is part of Facebook’s pledge to offer $100M in small business grants worldwide.

To be eligible to apply, you must:

Be a for-profit company

Have between 2 and 50 employees

Have been in business for over a year

Have experienced challenges from COVID-19

Apply for a Facebook Grant

Facebook is working with Ureeka, a third-party partner to select and distribute grants. Ureeka’s application will ask you to share your contact information, a brief summary about your business and how you would use the cash grant, for example to continue paying employees or help with rent costs.

To complete the application, you’ll also need at least one of the following documents:

Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN)

Partnership documents

Business license

Proof of incorporation

Official registration

Don’t delay! Applications are now open and will be available for two weeks. Read more program information from Facebook or begin your application.

If you need help navigating other disaster funding options for your small business, please reach out to your local SBDC service center, or call 1-866-588-7232 to be matched with an SBDC small business advisor.
