To help businesses combat the effects of the current economic climate, the Towns of Foxboro, Medfield, and Walpole have created a microenterprise grant up to $10,000 for microbusinesses located in their communities

A microbusiness is a business with 5 or fewer employees, including the owner (not full-time equivalent.) Grant funds can be used for working capital to cover business costs, such as rent, staffing, and utilities, insurance, and cost of foods. Funds may also be used for purchasing personal protection equipment (PPE). This grant does not need to be repaid. 

The application deadline for the Preliminary Applications is October 7th at 4:30 pm. At that time, the involved consultants will review the applications to ensure all those applying meet the eligibility criteria. Business owners with specific questions about eligibility criteria can contact Paula Stuart by phone (617-388-1331) or email This email address is being protected from spambots.
