    In order for the experts on this site to help you find the grants you're looking for, we'll need to know your general area.

    Have you checked into getting a small business loan?

    Again, we need your general area in order to give you the info you request. Without knowing where you're located, we cannot help.

    Hello scott:

    IF there were business grants, your bad credit would put the kaybash on those anyway.. But, the good news is, there AREN'T grants for business... Nobody wants to LOSE money, and that's what you sound like you're looking for...

    However, there ARE people who want to MAKE money and would be willing to invest in you. But, that's a different proposition...

    If you'd like to pursue THAT avenue, I can help.

    Yes, all of those 1000's of ads you see where the government wants to give away milliions, is just lies to get you to buy programs and books.

    If you were a business and had a business plan to hire 100 peeople, you may get grants for part of the investment,

    You may get tax breaks for moving a business into a depressed part of a city. ( like a store)

    You can get grants for things like the arts, if you provide services to some protected level of people,

    You may get grants if you have a non profit program that needs assistance.

    Some areas like solar power, or wind power can get grants.

    You are not getting a grant to buy equipment, so you buy a old junker equipment and start small and start doing more and more.
