The 2022 TCS New York City Marathon takes over the streets of NYC on Sunday, November 6, and our friends at Mastercard— proud supporter of New York Road Runners and the TCS New York City Marathon since 2020 — know just how much running a small business is like going the distance each and every day.
This year we’re looking for five (5) local businesses who live and breathe New York City and the entrepreneurial ethos that “it’s a marathon, not a sprint” to apply to receive a grant.
Mastercard will be awarding $5,000 Small Business Growth Fund grants to one small business in each of the five (5) boroughs of New York City. But hurry — applications for this round of funding close on October 14, 2022, at 6 p.m. ET.
Eligible businesses must:
● Be a for-profit business
● Have less than $1M in 2021 gross annual revenue
● Have a commitment to their customers and community
● Have a clear plan for use of funds.
The deadline for this round of funding is October 14, 2022, at 6 p.m. ET.
