Small businesses have always played a critical role in the growth and future of our region, and the Seattle Metro Chamber knows that rising costs are creating challenges for many
small business owners. That is why we are proud to partner with Comcast to announce $1 million in grants to local small businesses.
Comcast has announced a second round of grants in our area from the Comcast RISE Investment Fund. $10,000 grants will be awarded to 100 local small businesses providing $1
million additional dollars to small businesses owned by people of color, including Black, Indigenous, Hispanic, and Asian American owners, and women.
Beginning on Oct. 3 and through Oct. 16, eligible businesses in King and Pierce Counties can apply for a $10,000 grant at www.ComcastRISE.com. A total of 100 grants will be
awarded in November 2022.
The Investment Fund is an extension of Comcast RISE, the multi-year, multi-faceted initiative launched in October 2020 to support small businesses and provide the resources and
tools they need today and in the future.
The Comcast RISE Investment Fund is focused on small businesses that have been in business for three or more years with 1-25 employees. Local businesses must be located in
King and Pierce Counties to be eligible.
Additionally, Comcast RISE also offers the opportunity for businesses across Washington state to apply for marketing and technology services from Comcast Business and Effectv,
the advertising sales division of Comcast Cable.
The Comcast RISE Investment Fund will ensure that 100 small businesses that exist today continue to exist tomorrow. The Chamber encourages small businesses owners to find
out if you qualify and apply to take advantage of this opportunity provided by Comcast.
