You can try contacting them again and maybe you will luck out, I don't know what else to tell you, If it was me , First of all ( I wouldn't be getting a loan) but have you tried getting a loan from your bank if you have one?   There are also a bunch of other services you can find out there with a simple Google search, Good luck and best wishes!

Hi dwhite,What kind of business are you trying to start?Grants are extremely hard to get and they are only given to non-profit organizations. I suggest you look into Small Business Loans.
