Grants are rarely available to for-profit businesses. Your best bet is to look for a small business loan. Depending on how much you need, you may qualify for a microloan. 01-25-2011 11:56 AM

Jhahn1234, BizResearcher is correct. Grants are extremely hard to get and are mostly given to non-profits. Small Business Loans are a good alternative to grants. Depending on exactly what your business consist of, you may be able to receive Green Tax Incentives if your services are actually eco friendly. You may also want to check out our Green Business Guide. It has a wealth of resources for Starting a Green Business. If you have any other questions, feel free to post them! BriaS 01-25-2011 12:04 PM
