What are the Verizon $10k Grants?

The Verizon Small Business Digital Ready Grant, offered in partnership with LISC, is a funding program designed to help small businesses build skills and resources needed to succeed in today's digital economy. As part of this initiative, Verizon awards $10,000 grants to multiple small businesses that actively participate in the Digital Ready program and complete key educational or coaching activities.

What are the requirements?

To be eligible, applicants must be small business owners who first register on the Verizon Small Business Digital Ready portal. Applicants are required to complete at least two approved program activities, which may include online courses, live coaching sessions, or community events, in any combination. Once these steps are completed, applicants must submit their grant application directly through Verizon's platform.

Who is the grant best for?

This grant is best for small business owners who are interested in strengthening their digital skills, improving operations, or growing through education and mentorship. It's especially well suited for founders who are willing to invest time in learning and want funding to support their next stage of growth.

How are the winners selected?

Grant recipients are selected by Verizon and LISC based on a review of submitted applications through the Verizon Small Business Digital Ready platform. Applications are evaluated based on program participation and the information provided by the business owner. All final submissions and selections are handled directly by Verizon.
