Enter your Pasco County company in FedEx's small business grant competition!

October 29, 2012

FedEx just launched its first-ever, nationwide small business grant competition which will award a total of $50,000 to six deserving U.S. small businesses. The top winner will receive a $25,000 grant and the remaining five winners will receive grants of $5,000 each. Entering the contest not only provides you with a chance to win a grant to help your small business, but it gives you a chance to promote your business to the world at the same time. To register, participants must answer three questions, each in 500 characters or less, and describe their business, explain why they deserve a grant and state what they will do for their business with the money should they win. The campaign is designed for participants to promote their profiles among their own customers and fan bases throughout their social media networks to generate votes for their businesses.Small businesses, defined as having fewer than 100 employees, will compete for the grants by completing a profile to be voted on by Facebook users. The grant contest registration has opened, and small businesses can now begin uploading and promoting their profiles. To enter or vote visit: www.fedex.com/grantcontest PS - If you don't win the grant competition and still need a little money for your small business, check out the microloan program at Pasco EDC.
