Questions about this grant

When is the application deadline?
October 17, 2027. The notice was posted October 17, 2026, so the window is long — but the description explicitly says do not apply.
How much funding can an applicant receive?
The smallest award is $1 and the largest is $10, with $10 in total program funding across about 10 expected awards. These are nominal test values, not real money.
Who can apply for this grant?
The eligibility codes list small businesses only, and a for-profit small business may apply. Cost sharing is required. However, the description states this is a test NOFO and says 'Do not apply.'
Can a sole proprietor or single-member LLC apply?
The facts only say small businesses may apply; they do not specify whether sole proprietors or single-member LLCs qualify. Given the notice says do not apply, it is moot.
Can a nonprofit apply?
No. The eligibility codes list small businesses only, and our matching engine scores nonprofit-focused industries at 0 because this program does not accept nonprofit applicants.
