Give a hand up: Support a minority-owned business

Give a hand up! We are in the startup phase of our business and have run into many obstacles trying to get funding for equipment. There are almost no options for for-profit businesses to obtain financial assistance in the start-up phase. It turns out that grants are a joke and financial institutes want thousands of dollars to join memberships before they will fund you. So, during the course of our journey, we have decided that a portion of our profits every year will be donated to give a hand up to other small business startups who are facing the same obstacles we are facing today.
