The buyer
A small business gets to hire the expert they need to support them on a critical project. Your brand is the reason their growth isn't on hold.
For enterprise partners · You’re invited
Their next win starts with you.
The Small Business Hiring Fund puts your name behind the moment a business says “yes” to growth, and the moment another small business gets hired because of it.

01/What’s in it for you
You hold the pen.You decide who gets backed.
The fund is not a logo on someone else’s program. It is built around your priorities, and every credit is pointed where you aim it.
The people
The businesses you care about
You define who the fund is for — the demographics, communities, and business types you want to see grow. Businesses apply, and only the ones that fit your criteria are awarded a credit.
The place
The regions you want to impact
A neighborhood, a city, a state, or a market you simply want more presence in. The fund works wherever you point it, and the dollars stay there.

04/One credit. Two businesses impacted.
Every hire creates a ripple, and your brand is in both rooms.
The vendor
A small business lands a new contract and their revenue just boosted. Your brand helped make the hire.
05/Why now
Small businesses are ready to grow. Capital is what’s in the way.
81%
of small-business owners who applied for a loan or line of credit said affordable capital was difficult to access. Nearly half had to halt expansion plans.
