We were thrilled to work with Appalachian Community Capital to help design and implement a grant program funded by the Truist Foundation to support minority- and/or women-owned enterprises across Appalachian. The goal was to support these business owners with technical assistance and pass-through grants to help them recover, survive, and thrive coming out of Covid-19. ACC members put forth proposals for how they would use these funds to support the entrepreneurs in their communities. Each approach was unique to the entrepreneurs in each community and innovative. Fourteen ACC members were selected and awarded nearly $1 million. And boy did they put that money to good use!! In the report we drafted the outcomes of these efforts are documented with both metrics and stories. It's an uplifting read! ![]()
