The Buffalo Small Business Assistance Grant Program is now accepting applications. Business owners must reside in the city of Buffalo to be eligible for the program.
Other requirements include business owners must have 50 or fewer full-time employees, applicants must be the principal owner of a small business located in Buffalo, and applicants must live in one of the nine council districts.
The Buffalo Urban League and The Exchange at Beverly Gray will help business owners fill out the applications.
