2. Hi Kyle, Small businesses fail not because of poor products, ideas and services, but because they run out of money. Yet the success of small businesses is vital to the success of the American economy. The more businesses that prosper in your local community, the more attractive it becomes and the more funding it has to help with economic development. The government realizes that and many local organizations realize that. If it is too difficult for businesses to succeed the entire economic system could crumble. That is why small business grants are available to help entrepreneurs fulfill their dreams, and at the same time give back to the community. When your business grows, you create jobs, encourage people to spend, and pay taxes. All of these things help promote a healthy economy, and the government is highly interested in helping you achieve those things. Small business grants are made available to help you start or expand your business by reducing your risk. Once you obtain these grants, you'll never have to pay them back. As long as you used the funds in accordance to the terms of your grant, this money is yours to spend on your business.
